RFR: 8276241: JVM does not flag constant class entries ending in '/'

Please review this small fix for JDK-8276241.  The fix ensures that a ClassFormatError exception gets thrown for classes whose name ends in a '/' and are class file version less than 49 (JDK 1.5).  (A CFE already gets thrown for newer class file versions.)  The regression test class was written using a byte array because neither jcod nor jasm could handle a class name ending in '/'.

The fix was tested by running JCK lang and VM tests on Linux x64, Mach5 tiers 1-2 on Linux, Mac OS, and Windows, and Mach5 tiers 3-5 on Linux x64.

Thanks, Harold
