Review request for JDK-8007153: update method parameters data in redefineClasses

[serguei.spitsyn at oracle.com]

We normally develop a new jtreg test so that the fix can be tested 
before the hsx integration.
(It is if the issue does not have a test coverage yet.)
Then the test is integrated into the tl/jdk after the hsx fix gets promoted.
Just wanted to make sure we provide a unit test coverage with the fix.

Thanks,
Serguei
