This PR updates the spec of `Lookup::findClass` to reflect the current behavior that requires a binary name or a string representing an array class in the form as returned by `Class::getName`.    

`test/jdk/java/lang/invoke/accessClassAndFindClass/TestFindClass.java` already covers the test cases of a nested class and an array class.
