RFR: 8210943: Hiding of inner classes not resolved properly

[Sundararajan Athijegannathan]

Class.getClasses() javadoc does not mention anything about order of 
classes returned.

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/10/docs/api/java/lang/Class.html#getClasses()

Do we need a check using Class.getDeclaringClass() or do I something here?

Thanks,
-Sundar
