`VM.metaspace`, `VM.classloaders` and `VM.class_hierarchy` all print out 
reflection invocation targets for delegating reflection class loaders. Post JEP 
416 we don't use DelegatingClassLoaders anymore.

This patch removes the display of reflection targets from these commands as 
well as associated helper code and tests.

I don't have enough time atm to reimplement this feature using method handles. 
But at least we can remove the old code, and prepare the way for more code 
removal.

The patch does not touch vmClasses, `reflect_ConstructorAccessor` and 
`reflect_MethodAccessor` are both still there.

Tests: GHAs, manually testing the commands.
