Can I please get a review for this change which proposes to address 
https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8311032?

The commit in this PR skips the class lookups when the package name prefix is 
empty, either due to the `java.protocol.handler.pkgs` system property value 
being empty or due to individual parts of the `|` delimited value being empty.

This avoids potentially expensive classloading attempts for a class name of the 
form `.foo.Handler`, which is bound to fail.

No new jtreg test has been added given the nature of the change. There's 
already an existing test 
`test/jdk/java/net/URL/HandlersPkgPrefix/HandlersPkgPrefix.java` which tests 
different values for the `java.protocol.handler.pkgs` system property 
(including empty value) and that test continues to pass with this change.

tier testing is currently in progress.
