> During VM creation, Harmony will parse all class libraried defined in bootclasspath.properties under jre/lib/boot directory. However, not all class libraries are accessed during startup. That means, it is not necessary to open and resolve all these class libraries.
> In this patch, I implement the on-demand jar parsing. I leverage the class library info defined in the manifest file of each module. For a request class, if it is not available in existing class table, I then parse its class library info, and check which module contains this requested class. That is, I parse the class library on demand.
> Using on-demand class library parsing, I can reduce the VM creation time from 20+ seconds to 3 seconds.
> I enable this feature into reading boot class path option, and it can be disabled by using -Xbootclasspath option.
