Summary: Minimize redundant verifications of Klasses.
Also removed is_metadata() because checking that metadata is not in the
Java heap doesn't make sense anymore and could slow down verification
also. Some cases that aren't statically checked by the compiler now
call is_metaspace_object() under assert for verification.
Tested by nsk.quick.testlist, and failing SQE test.
