The `MethodHandles::zero` and `MethodHandles::empty` APIs are updated to return a primitive object with the default value if the given type is a primitive value type. These methods return null if the given type is a value class and a primitive reference type.
The MethodHandles::constant method will throw `NullPointerException` if the given type is a primitive value type and the given value is null. That's the same behavior as the `int` type but such case is missing in the spec.
