An indify tool in j.l.i tests (also in vmTestBase) convert some source-code private static methods with MT_ MH_, and INDY_ prefixes into MethodHandle, MethodType, and CallSite constants.
It currently uses ad-hoc code to process class files and intends to migrate to ASM; but since we have the Classfile API, we can migrate to Classfile API instead.
