RFR: 8331264: Reduce java.lang.constant initialization overhead [v3]

[Claes Redestad]

> I'm looking at ways at reducing/eliminating startup overheads the classfile API in preparation of #17108, and have pushed a series of enhancements to that effect already. This PR is a collection of minor improvements which add up to a 1.5% reduction in retired instructions - or a 5% reduction in executed bytecode - on a simple lambda startup test.
