Good catch. This is an obviously correct fix.

As noted, the reason this wasn't caught earlier is that due to [JDK-8367327](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8367327), tests accessing internal packages will compile even without the package being exported in the `addExports` files. It won't be available at runtime, but since `HeaderButtonOverlayTest` only uses static constants that are resolved at compile-time, it didn't actually try to load a class from that package at runtime.

Given that this is a trivially correct test-only fix, a single reviewer is sufficient and there is no need to wait for 24 hours.
