RFR: 8186459: [JVMCI] ClassNotFoundException thrown by CompilerToVM.lookupType() should be converted to a LinkageError

[Vladimir Kozlov]

Should you change C++ part of JVMCI instead and check PENDING_EXCEPTION like next?

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk10/hs/hotspot/file/c8607c55bfda/src/share/vm/oops/method.cpp#l1573

or call SystemDictionary::resolve_or_fail() instead of resolve_or_null()?:

Thanks,
Vladimir
