Please review this RFE for storing old classfiles with major version < 50 in static CDS archive.
During static CDS dump time, old classes won't be verified/rewritten. They will be verified/rewritten during runtime.
Therefore, the `_constMethod`, `_constants`, and `_cache` of old classes must be stored in the RW region of the archive for runtime rewriting. The `ConstantPool::remove_unshareable_info` will be skipped during dump time and the `ConstantPool::restore_unshareable_info` will be skipped during runtime for old classes.
Passed tiers 1,2,3,4 tests on mach5.
