Classfile API jdktypes package rename and Signatures move proposal

Hi,
Based on PR feedback I would like to propose two possible API changes:

  1.  Rename jdk.internal.classfile.jdktypes package to jdk.internal.classfile.constant to reflect the fact that PackageDesc and ModuleDesc are complementing java.lang.constant package content.
  2.  Move Signature, MethodSignature and ClassSignature from jdk.internal.classfile package to the same package as #1, as the signature models are similar to descriptor models and serve the same purpose.

Please let me know if you agree or disagree individually with #1 and #2.

Thank you,
Adam
