Compare the list of tool specifications

https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/15/docs/specs/man/

with the list of 8 tools provided by JDK 16-ea

jar (provided by module jdk.jartool@16-ea)
javac (provided by module jdk.compiler@16-ea)
javadoc (provided by module jdk.javadoc@16-ea)
javap (provided by module jdk.jdeps@16-ea)
jdeps (provided by module jdk.jdeps@16-ea)
jlink (provided by module jdk.jlink@16-ea)
jmod (provided by module jdk.jlink@16-ea)
jpackage (provided by module jdk.jpackage@16-ea)

Especially jarsigner is missing here.

Which could be provided by module jdk.jartool itself.
Bach should provide a ToolProvider calling JarSigner in-process.
In the meantime, Bach could also support running external programs via the ProcessBuilder API.
