bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8202686
JDK-8200167 added additional checks to ensure receiver typechecks were
in place where needed for invokespecial invocations. There was one
variation missing in the test: invoking a final Object method via an
interface reference. This is potentially different to a non-final Object
method because the finality means the method is treated as non-virtual
and so activates different call paths in the logic.
No unexpected behaviour was found but the test case is added for
completeness (which is significant when we adapt this invokeinterface
testing for the nestmates work (JEP 181).
There were also a couple of positive MH invocations missing from the
test so they were added for completeness as well.
Thanks,
David
