liberica-openjdk-alpine-musl images pick up JDK_JAVA_OPTIONS twice, fail to start

[stokpop]

Switching to liberica alpine linux-musl our docker image failed to start.

We see JDK_JAVA_OPTIONS processed twice, and it fails for options that can only be parsed once like the agentlib below.

Example:

> docker run --rm -e "JDK_JAVA_OPTIONS=-agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=*:5005" bellsoft/liberica-openjdk-alpine-musl:11 java -
version
NOTE: Picked up JDK_JAVA_OPTIONS: -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=*:5005
NOTE: Picked up JDK_JAVA_OPTIONS: -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=*:5005
ERROR: Cannot load this JVM TI agent twice, check your java command line for duplicate jdwp options.
Error occurred during initialization of VM
agent library failed to init: jdwp

Same for liberica-openjdk-alpine-musl:17.

Note: JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS is parsed only once, but we prefer the other one because the JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS is also used for tools like jps.

> docker run --rm -e "JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS=-agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=*:5005" bellsoft/liberica-openjdk-alpine-musl:17 java -version
Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS: -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=*:5005
Listening for transport dt_socket at address: 5005
openjdk version "17.0.2" 2022-01-18 LTS
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 17.0.2+9-LTS)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 17.0.2+9-LTS, mixed mode)

Note: using non-musl alpine seems to work fine.

Maybe related? adoptium/adoptium-support#303

Same issue here. As a workaround, depending on context, you can use JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS until this is fixed.
