> This PR suggests introducing an internal class in `java.base` to simplify the use of some `MethodHandles.Lookup` operations.
>
> While the utility of the methods might appear to be limited in classes with many static `VarHandle`/`MethodHandle` variables, it should be noted that the class files become smaller and simpler. Here are some examples:
>
> | Class File | Base [Bytes] | Patch [Byte] |
> | --------------------------------| ------------- | ------------ |
> | FutureTask.class | 10,255 | 10,123 |
> | AtomicBoolean.class | 5,364 | 5,134 |
> |AtomicMarkableReference.class | 3,890 | 3,660 |
>

> The new `MethodHandlesInternal.class` file is of size 1,952 bytes.
>
> In total for `java.base` we have:
>
> | Build map "jdk" | Size [Bytes] |
> | ---------------| ------------- |
> | Base | 5,906,457 |
> | Patch | 5,905,487 |
> | Delta | 940|
