The commit in this PR addresses those issues by updating the test specific `ClassFileTransformer` to only instrument application specific class instead of all (core) classes. The test was introduced several years back to verify the feature introduced in https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-6263319. As such, the proposed changes in this PR continue to test that feature - we now merely use application specific class' native method to verify the semantics of that feature.

Additionally, without this change I've run the test with a test repeat of 100 with virtual threads enabled and the test hangs occasionally (as expected). With this proposed fix, I have then run the test with virtual threads, around 300 times and it hasn't failed or hung in any of those instances.

Thank you all for the reviews and inputs. I'll go ahead with the integration in a few hours from now, once the CI test jobs I trigger for this, complete.
