Summary: in jdk8u40 and jdk9, ScriptObjects (like NativeArray, JO4) are 
always wrapped as ScriptObjectMirror when crossing to Java layer.

When the script is done and I'm back in Java, my poor HashMap is now full of NativeArrays and JO4s. I gotta JSON-up all this data and I can't seem to find any way into those objects (and even if so, I don't want to depend on talking straight to internals). I really, really don't want to burden the script with any boilerplate to make this work; the script currently runs beautifully with nice clean statements like "dataStore.xyz = [5,6,7];" so I'd hate to junk it up with a bunch of manual function calls to just make this to work. I can see the data I need is RIGHT THERE in my HashMap... what step am I missing? Thanks.
