This is a regression caused by JDK-8020801 that the initialization of a custom system class loader hits a code path that checks if a class is loaded by the platform class loader.  Such code path should not call ClassLoader::getSystemClassLoader since the system class loader is being initialized.

The fix is simple and uses jdk.internal.loader.ClassLoaders.platformClassLoader() instead.
