Request for Review JDK-8006948: Update javac for MethodParameters format change

[Eric McCorkle]

Hello,

Please review this change, which updates javac and the classfile library
to reflect changes in the class file format of MethodParameters attributes.

The webrev is here:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~emc/8006948/webrev.00/

The latest version of the spec can be found here:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~abuckley/8.misc

The enhancement request is here:
http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=8006948


Note that this will break compatibility with existing versions.
Furthermore, the companion changeset for hotspot will go into hsx, and
will take some time to propagate to TL.  However, there are no tests
enabled at this point that rely on the old binary format, so there
should be no JPRT failures arising from this fix.

Thanks,
Eric
