Default methods for jdk8: request for code review

[Coleen Phillimore]

Hi,
I have read through all of this code.  Offline to Keith, I have 
suggested some name changes and comments to make it clearer, at least to 
me, what this code is doing.  It's very dense but I believe it is 
correct and finds the correct default method to add to the vtable in the 
most efficient way possible.
Keith, can you elaborate on the tests that you've run against this?
Thanks,
Coleen
