This API currently works only for "mapped shared strings", but in the future we may enhance it to check for "loaded shared strings" by EpsilonGC.

> 594:   public native boolean isSharedClass(Class<?> c);

> 596:   public native boolean isSharedInternedString(String s);

please also update `jdk.test.whitebox.WhiteBox`
