RFR JDK-8207197: [lworld] VarHandle array support for value types

[David Simms]

Looks good, some minor suggestions (don't need follow up RFR)...


unsafe.cpp:315 :324 :360 :369

     Suggest moving the "index" calculation into a new method in 
valueArrayKlass.hpp so any size related calculations are encapsulated in 
the same place. ("jint ValueArrayKlass::index_at_offset(jlong)" ?)

unsafe.cpp:319 :364

     Add a final condition "else { ShouldNotReachHere(); }" in the 
ASSERT block, just in case


ArrayElementVarHandleTest.java

     Run this tests with array flattening explicitly disabled via 
"-XX:-ValueArrayFlatten", and explicitly enabled 
"-XX:+ValueArrayFlatten" (i.e. 2 jteg @run lines)


Good work, cheers
/D
