[8u-dev] request for review and approval: 8155106: MHs.Lookup.findConstructor returns handles for array classes

[Michael Haupt]

Dear all,

please review and approve this backport.
Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8155106
Webrev for 9: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mhaupt/8155106/webrev.00/
Review thread for 9: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2016-April/040571.html
Webrev for 8u: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mhaupt/8155106-8u/webrev.00/

The patch for 8u differs from the one for 9 in that it *only* contains the bug fix and test for the bug, but none of the new API added to 9 and accompanying tests.

Thanks,

Michael
