Disable RTTI `-GR-` for Hotspot when building with MSVC. This drops the size of 
`jvm.dll` by roughly 1 MB. Hotspot does not rely on RTTI and it is disabled for 
both GCC/Clang and Open XL C/C++ already. This change disables it for MSVC, 
ensuring we do not accidently rely on RTTI for Windows-specific code while also 
decreasing the resulting binary size.

Cheers to @alexmenkov for finding the tricky root cause of why disabling RTTI 
was causing a subset of serviceability agent tests to fail.
