On the other hand, the `InvocationHandle::invokeDefault` method was added in Java 16 to invoke a default method of a proxy instance. This patch simply converts the implementation to call `InvocationHandle::invokeDefault` instead.

My question was for when a library wants to implement something similar to `MethodHandleProxies.asInterfaceInstace`, and for example supports Interfaces with more than a single abstract method.
Currently, such a library would also have to call `ReflectAccess.invokeDefault`, as the interface may not be accessible by the `InvocationHandler` (as it could be the case with `MethodHandleProxies.asInterfaceInstace`
But this might be a discussion for an other time.
Patch looks good.
