A small set of NamedFunctions is pre-initialized to allow JSR292 
bootstrapping. After 8022595, which enabled JSR292 initialization during 
VM startup, they are instantiated even when JSR292 isn't used.

It leads to unnecessary work being done and a regression in startup time 
(~20-25ms for HelloWorld application on my laptop). The major 
contribution to this time is bytecode compilation of LF's for 
preinitialized NamedFunctions.

The fix is to factor NamedFunctions used for bootstrapping into an inner 
class to delay initialization till the first usage.

After the fix, JSR292 pre-init duration goes down to 2-3ms (from 25ms) 
and no anonymous classes are produced, if JSR292 isn't used in the 
application.

Testing: concurrent loading & init order tests for java.lang.invoke, 
JSR292 tests, octane.

Best regards,
Vladimir Ivanov
