Limit JIT tier for javac

javac is generally a short-lived JVM invocation that doesn't greatly
benefit from deep JIT tiering. As such, favor faster startup time
by limiting to tier 1 JIT for javac execution. This should greatly
reduce overall CPU usage from Java compilation for an arbitrary
Android build (~20%), and deliver a small but modest improvement in
overall Java build times (~5%).

Representative incremental build times with this change:
  * real 18m3.507s
  * user 563m4.838s
and without:
  * real 19m11.909s
  * user 751m27.790s

Follow-up changes will apply similar flags for other short-lived JVM
build commands.
