`AccessibleObject::setAccessible` and `trySetAccessible` methods should only allow access to public member of a public type that is unconditionally exported consistent with the access check as described in the class specification, when invoked by JNI code with no Java class on the stack. The current implementation throws NPE when finding the module of the caller class as the caller class is null.
The specification of `canAccess`, `setAccessible` and `trySetAccessible` are updated to specify the behavior when the caller class is null. I consider this spec update as a clarification as the class specification covers this case.
