defineClass doesn't exist on extended ClassLoader

[Sundararajan Athijegannathan]

Hi,

Two things:

* Nashorn allows access only to public methods and fields (of exported) 
classes only.

* With Java.extend, Nashorn adds public overrides of all non-final 
protected methods of the superclass.
ClassLoader.definePackage is non-final protected method. 
ClassLoader.defineClass is final protected method.
Hence no override of ClassLoader.defineClass added to generated subclass.
