> Can I please get a review of this change, which simplifies the interaction between the `java` launcher's native code with the `sun.launcher.LauncherHelper`? 
> 
> As noted in https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8341184, this proposed change reduces the back and forth between the launcher's native code and the `LauncherHelper` class. This also removes the additional reflective lookups from the native code after the main class and main method have been determined by the `LauncherHelper`. 
> 
> Although this is a clean up of the code, the changes in the `LauncherHelper` to return a `MainEntry` have been done in a way to facilitate additional upcoming changes in this area, which propose to get rid of the JAR manifest parsing from the launcher's native code.
> 
> No new tests have been added. Existing tests in tier1, tier2 and tier3 continue to pass.
