RFR (S) : JDK-8006267 - InterfaceMethod_ref should allow invokestatic and invokespecial

[Bharadwaj Yadavalli]

I would like to request for a review of code changes made to support 
lambda related changes to allow static invokestatic and invokespecial 
calls to InterfaceMethod_ref per spec version 0.6.2 
(http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dlsmith/jsr335-0.6.2.html). These changes 
support an upcoming change that compiles lambdas as private static methods.

Testing done: Ensured changes do not break backward compatibility by 
running JPRT; also tests in lambda repo.
