RFR: 6323374: (coll) Optimize Collections.unmodifiable* and synchronized* [v8]

[Ian Graves]

> Modify the `unmodifiable*` methods in `java.util.Collections` to be idempotent. That is, when given an immutable collection from `java.util.ImmutableCollections` or `java.util.Collections`, these methods will return the reference instead of creating a new immutable collection that wraps the existing one.
