RFR: 8354556: Expand value-based class warnings to java.lang.ref API

This PR is defining a new internal annotation, `@jdk.internal.RequiresIdentity`, with target types PARAMETER and TYPE_PARAMETER. The @RequiresIdentity annotation expresses the expectation that an argument to a given method or constructor parameter will be an object with a unique identity, not an instance of a value-based class; or that the type argument to a given type parameter will not be a value-based class type.

For more details please refer to the complete description in the corresponding JIRA entry [1]

TIA
