This PR exploits the observation that in many of the cases where we call `methodType.invokerType()` we immediately translate it into a `Name[]` where the only effect is to create an array with an additional leading `BasicType.L_TYPE` argument. Only in a subset of cases will a corresponding `invokerType()` be created later to bind the MH to an invoker.
Providing methods to bypass the creationg of such transient, intermediary `MethodType` creation avoids excessive allocations and adding types to the MT interning table that quickly become stale.
Number of executed bytecode on a trivial HelloLambda application drops locally from ~517k to ~505k.
