[Closed] RFR (XS) 8152380 - Shared symbol/string tables should never use alternate hashcode

[Ioi Lam]

Here are the closed changes:

http://ioilinux.us.oracle.com/webrev/jdk9/jdk9/8152380_shared_table_rehashing.v02/

New tests to force alternate hashing for strings and symbols:
       runtime/7158800/BadUtf8_Shared.java
       runtime/7158800/InternTest_Shared.java

I also added a few test cases in 
runtime/AppCDS/sharedStrings/InternStringTest.java to check for correct 
hashing of different UNICODE characters.

Thanks
