RFR: 8332614: Type-checked ConstantPool.entryByIndex and ClassReader.readEntryOrNull [v2]

[Chen Liang]

> I propose to add type-checked ConstantPool.entryByIndex and ClassReader.readEntryOrNull taking an extra Class parameter, which throws ConstantPoolException instead of ClassCastException on type mismatch, which can happen to malformed ClassFiles.
> 
> Requesting a review from @asotona. Thanks!
