Native method binding

[David Lloyd]

With the (hopeful) ascendance of FFM over JNI, what about the idea of
allowing `native` methods to be bound to `MethodHandle`s on the Java side
at run time? This would allow for a much nicer experience than creating
wrapper methods and would bring another level of parity with JNI, which has
this capability (`RegisterNatives`). The capability could be restricted as
a form of native access, and only allowed for methods in classes within the
same module.

What do you think?
