Review Request: 8238358: Implementation of JEP 371: Hidden Classes

[Mandy Chung]

Please review the delta patch:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mchung/valhalla/webrevs/hidden-classes/webrev.06-delta/

Incremental specdiff:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mchung/valhalla/webrevs/hidden-classes/specdiff-inc/overview-summary.html
This is to follow a discussion [1] on Class::descriptorString and 
MethodType::descriptorString for hidden classes.   The proposal is to 
define the descriptor string for a hidden class of this form:
     "L" + N + ";" + "/" + <suffix>

The spec of `Lookup::defineHiddenClass`, `Class::descriptorString` and 
`MethodType::descriptorString` are updated to return the descriptor of 
this form for a hidden class.   To support hidden class, 
`java.lang.invoke.TypeDescriptor` spec is revised such that a 
`TypeDescriptor` object can represent an entity that may not be 
described in nominal form.     This change affects JVM TI, JDWP and 
JDI.    The spec change includes a couple other JVM TI and 
java.instrument spec clarification w.r.t. hidden classes that Serguei 
has been working on.

As a record, the above patch is applied on the top:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mchung/valhalla/webrevs/hidden-classes/webrev.06/

webrev.06 includes the following changes that have been reviewed:
1. rename "weak hidden" and Klass::is_hidden_weak to is_non_strong_hidden
2. remove unused `setImplMethod` method from lambda proxy class
3. include Serguei's patch to fix JDK-8242166: regression in JDI 
ClassUnload events
4. drop the uniqueness guarantee of the suffix of the hidden class's name
