[8u-dev] Request for Approval: 8062771: Core reflection should use final fields whenever possible

[Ivan Gerasimov]

Hi!

Would you please approve this straightforward backport from 9?
I only had to skip a few files, as they already contain necessary changes.
The rest of the patch applies cleanly after unshuffling.
