      The JLink classes currently use the ImageReader API for reading the content of the system image.

      With preview mode, this is not longer a valid approach, since ImageReader now hides preview classes/resources from the view presented.

      Exactly equivalent to how JAR files require a "raw" view when used by JLink, the jimage files file also require one.

      Specifically, this will fix an error in:
      test/jdk/tools/jlink/runtimeImage/PackagedModulesVsRuntimeImageLinkTest.java
      which relies on JlinkTask and fails when used with preview resources present.
