JogAmp iOS Arm64 bring-up

I have been distracted from completing the 2.4.0 JogAmp release last two weeks, but at least it is for a good reason.

Our most valuable client CCT International ordered a JogAmp port running on Apple’s iOS devices, namely iPad Pro using an arm64.

Right now I still finalize the NativeWindow, Jogl and Newt specialization for iOS.
Subsequently I will add JavaFX to the proof of concept (POC).
If all goes as planned, I will demonstrate a working demo soon.

Here is a little teaser of the past work, my first GlueGen bring-up on iOS arm64.
The work includes a statically linked OpenJDK 9 hotspot-zero build,
which we may disclose at a later time. Naturally we aim for hotspot arm64 as the final goal.
For now the required GlueGen changes are published pro-forma,
as well as some ant-cpptask enhancements to allow using xcrun clang to create the static libraries instead of ar.

Since you still have to wait a few more days for the demo video, here is the informal GlueGen stdout VersionInfo:
