RFR: 8259235: javac crashes while attributing super method invocation

Code like:
public class SuperMethodCallBroken extends Undef implements I {
public void test() {
I.super.test();
}
}
interface I {
public default void test() {}
}
crashes javac. The reason is that when `I.super` is being attributed, the interfaces of the enclosing class are pruned to remove subtypes - but `Undef` is erroneous and is a subtype of every type. So `I` is removed from the list of interfaces to check, and javac crashes then.
The proposed fix is to ignore erroneous supertypes when looking for subtypes.
