Summary: Add classLoader to java/lang/Class instance for fast access
This is a backport request for 8u40. This change has been in the jdk9
code for 3 months without any problems.
The JDK changes hg imported cleanly. The Hotspot change needed a hand
merge for create_mirror call in klass.cpp.

bug link https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-6642881
Ran jdk_core jtreg tests in jdk with both jdk/hotspot changes. Also ran
jck java_lang tests with only the hotspot change. The hotspot change
can be tested separately from the jdk change (but not the other way around).
Thanks,
Coleen
