> This change does some renaming of tags, fields and function name (resolve_super_or_fail => resolve_with_circularity_detection) in the Placeholders and SystemDictionary (class loading) code.  resolve_super_or_fail implied that it's always the super class, which it is not, especially with the upcoming changes to valhalla.  Renaming the function to resolve/load and check for circularity error is more accurate. These are changes made by @fparain brought over from the valhalla branch.
> Tested with tier1-4.
