Review request JDK-8165180: Provide a shared secret to access non-public ServerSocket constructor

[Peter Levart]

Hi Many,

Are you sure the implementation class passed to 
JavaNetSocketAccess.newSocketImpl(Class<? extends SocketImpl> implClass) 
is never going to be loaded by a class loader other than bootstrap 
classloader (the loader of the caller of 
implClass.getDeclaredConstructor()) and that no unprivileged code will 
be on the call stack at that time? Do you need to enclose this 
invocation into doPrivileged() block or do you expect that the caller of 
JavaNetSocketAccess.newSocketImpl() will do that?

Regards, Peter
