Ahead of time native code compiler.

It was kept around for a long time after everyone went to OpenJDK, because it was the only project with certain unit tests for GCC code paths, when that was eventually sorted out, it was when they dropped it.

I meant it compiled bytecode to native ahead of time. There was also a source to native part which was removed first.
