RFR JDK-8207815: [lworld] JVM_GetArrayElement and, JVM_SetArrayElement don't work for flatten array

[John Rose]

If getComponentType is null you need to throw IAE.

You can do this by sending the non-array straight to the native function:

- if (!componentType.isPrimitive()) {
+ if (componentType != null && !componentType.isPrimitive()) {
