RFR: 8215492: Rename INTERNAL_EMPTY to something less "internal"

The INTERNAL_EMPTY macro is sometimes useful outside of access*.[ch]pp. 
We should change the name of that macro and allow it to be used, for 
example, in JNIHandle code, which today passes a "0".

I propose that we change it to DECORATORS_NONE, but I'm open to other 
suggestions.

This patch also adjusts the JNI Handle code to make use of this macros 
instead of using "0".

(Note! This patch is based on JDK-8215451, which has not yet propagated 
from jdk/jdk12 to jdk/jdk)
