> I used the `findclass` and `findmethod` functions in debug.cpp a lot when debugging problems with class metadata.

> This REF improves these functions by:
>
> - Sorting the names of classes and methods
> - Allow "." to be used in class names. So both `findclass("java.lang.Object")` and `findclass("java/lang/Object")` would work
> - Print the C++/Java objects that represent classes and methods.
