8348905: Add support to specify the JDK for compiling Jtreg tests

[sendaoYan]

Hi all,

This pull request contains a backport of commit cbe9ec53 from the openjdk/jdk repository. This backport support set to an alternative JDK directory that is different from the JDK running the tests through JDK_FOR_COMPILE, shows as below command.

make test CONF=linux-x86_64-server-fastdebug TEST="jtreg:test/hotspot/jtreg/native_sanity/JniVersion.java" JDK_IMAGE_DIR=$PWD/build/linux-x86_64-server-fastdebug/images/jdk JDK_FOR_COMPILE=$PWD/build/linux-x86_64-server-release/images/jdk

Thanks!
