RFR: 8373832: Test java/lang/invoke/TestVHInvokerCaching.java tests nothing

Tue Dec 16 23:30:14 UTC 2025

This test incorrectly uses getFields to discover package-private fields, resulting in no VarHandle being tested. Without fixing that site, the newly added assertFalse fails.

@JornVernee please review since you initially created this.

This bug is discovered during junit migration attempt. I intentionally separated this for ease of backport all the way to 17, when this test was added.
