Request for review (XL): 7012648: move JSR 292 to package java.lang.invoke and adjust names

[Vladimir Kozlov]

systemDictionary.hpp: why switching back to sun.dyn?:

-  template(MethodHandleImpl_klass,       java_dyn_MethodHandleImpl, 
Pre_JSR292) /* AllowTransitionalJSR292 ONLY */ \
+  template(MethodHandleImpl_klass,       sun_dyn_MethodHandleImpl, 
Opt) /* AllowTransitionalJSR292 ONLY */ \


methodHandleWalk.cpp: comment says "java.dyn" but should it be "java.lang.invoke"? :

+   if (m == NULL)
+     // sun.dyn.MethodHandleImpl not found, look for java.dyn.MethodHandleNatives:
+     m = vmIntrinsics::method_for(vmIntrinsics::_checkSpreadArgument_TRANS2);
