Add CLI support and fat jar packaging for JNI Generator

[Copilot]

The JNI Generator tool was only accessible within Eclipse IDE. This adds standalone command-line support with Maven-based fat jar packaging.

Changes

• README.md: Documentation of JNI Generator tool, CLI usage, and build instructions
• pom.xml: Standalone Maven configuration with Eclipse dependencies (JDT, Core Runtime, SWT) and assembly plugin setup
• JNIGeneratorCLI: New CLI wrapper fixing argument ordering issue in original JNIGeneratorApp.main() and adding help output
• Assembly descriptor: Configuration to package all dependencies into single executable JAR (~42MB)

Usage

# Build fat jar
cd bundles/org.eclipse.swt.tools
mvn clean package

# Generate JNI bindings
java -jar target/org.eclipse.swt.tools-*-jar-with-dependencies.jar \
  org.eclipse.swt.internal.gtk.OS \
  /path/to/output/ \
  /path/to/sources/

# Generates: os.c, os_structs.{h,c}, os_stats.{h,c}

Note: Requires Java source files (not just compiled classes) as the generator uses Eclipse JDT AST parser to analyze annotations.

Firewall rules blocked me from connecting to one or more addresses (expand for details)

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:

• Configure Actions setup steps to set up my environment, which run before the firewall is enabled
• Add the appropriate URLs or hosts to the custom allowlist in this repository's Copilot coding agent settings (admins only)

Original prompt

We need a way to call the generator from a main class

The location here

https://github.com/laeubi/eclipse.platform.swt/tree/master/bundles/org.eclipse.swt.tools/JNI%20Generation/org/eclipse/swt/tools/internal

contains the so called JNI generator.

What we need is:

1. a README in the org.eclipse.swt.tools that describes the tools provided with a special focus to the JNI generator
2. currently this is called as a special build in Eclipse, we need a way to call this code from the CLI as a java application with a main class
3. wee need a maven-assembly-plugin descriptor that package the plugin and all its dependencies into a fat jar
