Some options are different between oracle and openjdk builds; the differences should be eliminated to simplify development. Some options also need different default values in embedded vs regular builds.
EVALUATION
UsePerfData defaults to false in embedded builds, true in regular SE builds.
DesiredMethodLimit was a product option in oracle builds, but a develop option in openjdk builds; make it a develop option in all builds, but issue a warning in product builds and allow the VM to run.
Make UseCompressedStrings an obsolete option.
This eliminates some tedious differences between the oracle and openjdk builds.
