I was wondering why the resolveClass and resolveProxyClass methods are
specified differently w.r.t. class loader search. I made only localized change
as I didn’t have the history.
I’m happy to clean up the spec. I’d also fix the spec “user-defined class
loader” which isn’t correct as it also includes built-in app class loader.

* ClassLoader#getPlatformClassLoader() platform class loader}.
