> This patch changes the compiler to allow constructors to make assignments to fields prior to the `super()` invocation, i.e., in the pre-construction context. This is part of the work associated with [JDK-8325803 - Flexible Constructor Bodies (Second Preview)](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8325803).
>
> This patch is based the relevant bits from @vicente-romero-oracle's commit [1b99b5cf](https://github.com/openjdk/valhalla/commit/1b99b5cfd9a5d484b9e7bdfc284daad9ad6535bf) to the valhalla repo.
