This is a regression caused by JDK-8302791. IAE should be thrown when an interface is not visible to the given class loader but NPE is thrown instead when the loader is null. The boot loader has no name and so the fix will print `null` in the exception message. `test/jdk/java/lang/reflect/Proxy/ClassRestrictions.java` is converted to junit and updated to test IAE thrown because proxy interface is not visible to null loader.
