Constant dynamic pushed to the hs repo

[Maurizio Cimadamore]

That's right.

We have some experimental changes in that vein in the amber repo - but 
in general, support for condy in lambda requires updated ASM support, 
and we'll get an updated ASM with condy support only _after_ JDK11 is 
shipped. So, as a rule of thumb, features that rely on ASM (such as our 
lambda metafactory) have to wait until the JDK ASM understands the new 
bytecode goodies.
