Please review this fix for JDK-8191637, which modifies an earlier fix
for JDK-6356530.
Prior to the fix for JDK-6356530, all abstract classes (including
interfaces) were excluded from the check for serialVersionUID. The fix
for JDK-6356530 modified the check, but focussed on concrete methods
(including default methods for interfaces) instead of serializable fields.
This fix updates the check so that interfaces are never checked, and
abstract classes are only checked if they have serializable (non-static,
non-transient) fields.
