RFR(M): 8204943: Improve message of ArrayStoreException.

[Lois Foltan]

Hi Goetz,

Looks good, nice improvement.  Just some minor comments:

- I think "ResourceMark rm;" could be changed to "ResourceMark rm(THREAD);"
   objArrayKlass.cpp line #238 & 261,
   typeArrayKlass.cpp line #136

- objArrayKlass.cpp line #263 - can you capitalize the word "object" as 
I am assuming it is a java/lang/Object[]?

Thanks,
Lois
