Java changes for supporting preview mode when preview mode resources (with new location flags) are available.

At the moment, this code will operate on non-preview jimage files (1.0) and act as if no preview resources are available by virtue of the default value for missing attributes and package flags being zero (which matches jimage 1.0).

This should be reviewed on top of https://github.com/openjdk/valhalla/pull/1618
