Seems like a good trick.

* webrev metadata: "invokation" -> "invocation"

* Why $caller is MethodHandles.Lookup now? Is it known to have that type?

That way, instanceof checks are right before the (otherwise potentially
unsafe) casts.

Any JSR292/Nashorn benchmarks to prove it does not degrade the "usual"
bootstrap scenarios? I understand most of the performance is dominated
by already-linked sites, but still.
