RFR: 8278078: cannot reference super before supertype constructor has been called [v2]

[Adam Sotona]

> Pull request #4376 (with fix of 8261006: 'super' qualified method references cannot occur in a static context) regressed compilation of all inner classes using <enclosing class>.super pattern in their constructor argument to fail with: 
>  error: cannot reference super before supertype constructor has been called 
> 
> For example following source fragment cannot be compiled since that: 
> 
>     class EnclClass { 
>         class InnerClass extends Exception { 
>             InnerClass() { 
>                 super(EnclClass.super.toString()); 
>             } 
>         } 
>     } 
> 
> 
> This patch keeps throwing "cannot reference super" error for calls of <interface>.super and permits calls of <enclosing class>.super
> 
> Plus it adds a new test.

> Thanks,
