Please review this enhancement which adds a hidden `jlink` option `--sha-overrides` that can be used to provide alternative hash sums for files in an image. Please see the bug for use-cases as to why this is needed. This patch allows for the `--sha-overrides` option to be either specified multiple times or separated by a comma to list multiple hash sum overrides. Alternatively when starting with the `@` character the override options come from a file. The format is the same: `<module>|<file-path>|<sha>` triplets, either on the command line or in a file (one per line).
The added, linux only, test uses `objcopy` to fully strip `libjvm.so` of its symbols with the assumption that this would change the hash sum of the resulting file. Then, a link from the run-time image is being attempted with the added option `--sha-overrides=java.base|lib/server/libjvm.so|<new-sha-sum>` and verifies the link succeeds. Having something like that is useful when it gets combined with e.g. `--save-jlink-arg-files` to produce a `jlink` which works out of the box on say JDK builds that modify binaries due to some debug symbols handling outside the JDK builds' control. While using `--ignore-modified-runtime` is an option that is sub-optimal as that would spit out many warnings in the RPM build case, where the user wouldn't control that RPM build to begin with. Testing: - [ ] GHA - [x] Some manual tests together with [JDK-8352692](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8352692) on some JEP 493 enabled builds. - [x] `jlink` jtreg tests.
