RFR 8138578:MethodHandles.Lookup.findSpecial() Javadoc fails to consider static methods

[Paul Sandoz]

Hi Shilpi,

Similar to the previous patch, can you double check Lookup.unreflect. Not sure how far you wanna go in this case, but checking i think would be useful.

 860          *                                or if the method is {@code private} method of interface

s/method of interface/method of an interface/

Paul.
