> This is the 5th PR for [JEP 483: Ahead-of-Time Class Loading & Linking](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8315737).
> 
> This PR is necessary to support [JDK-8293336: AOT-linking of invokedynamic for lambda expression and string concat](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8293336), which needs to store Java heap objects that have native pointers to the C++ `Method` objects  returned by `SystemDictionary::find_method_handle_intrinsic()` 
> 
> These `Method` objects are created within the JVM. They do not belong to any actual Java classes. We store all these `Method` objects into the AOT cache, so that they can be referenced by other artifacts in the AOT cache.
> 
> ---
> See [here](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8315737) for the sequence of dependent RFEs for implementing JEP 483.
