I've updated with a few commits today which solve (I think) the access
control issue, moves constant descriptors to constants in a holder
class, moves the bootstrap to `ConstantBootstraps`, just says "no" to
caching, and cleans up a few other minor issues. I guess I'll go ahead
and update JDK-8333796 to reference this new strategy and start
preparing to put up a PR, unless someone raises an objection to the
final approach taken here.
Just to set expectations on a possible PR, this is not a change that can
be rushed in. It's controversial to extend this backdoor and may make it
hard for this backdoor to be removed in the future. I think we will
also need to get the security/vulnerability folks to go over this.
