The getResources method can be used to find all matches in the class
path for a given path, e.g. to seek out all the META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
files contained in all of the .jar files in the class path.
We just taught the findResources() method to return all matches (rather
than only the first), so let's use that method to get all the matches
from the current class loader's class path elements.

The findResources method is supposed to enumerate all the class path
elements' matching paths' URLs, but we used to stop at the first one.
While this is good enough when the system class path contains only a
single .jar file, since b88438d2(sketch of JAR support in Finder)
supports more than a single .jar file in the class path.

Previously, I used a shell script to extract modification date ranges
from the Git history, but that was complicated and unreliable, so now
every file just gets the same year range in its copyright header. If
someone needs to know when a specific file was modified and by whom,
they can look at the Git history themselves; no need to include it
redundantly in the header.
OpenJDK's java.lang.ClassLoader.getResource makes use of
sun.misc.Launcher to load bootstrap resources, which is not
appropriate for the Avian build, so we override it to ensure we get
the behavior we want.
The biggest change in this commit is to split the system classloader
into two: one for boot classes (e.g. java.lang.*) and another for
application classes. This is necessary to make OpenJDK's security
checks happy.
The rest of the changes include bugfixes and additional JVM method
implementations in classpath-openjdk.cpp.
Whereas the GNU Classpath port used the strategy of patching Classpath
with core classes from Avian so as to minimize changes to the VM, this
port uses the opposite strategy: abstract and isolate
classpath-specific features in the VM similar to how we abstract away
platform-specific features in system.h. This allows us to use an
unmodified copy of OpenJDK's class library, including its core classes
and augmented by a few VM-specific classes in the "avian" package.
In order to facilitate making the VM compatible with multiple class
libraries, it's useful to separate the VM-specific representation of
these classes from the library implementations. This commit
introduces VMClass, VMField, and VMMethod for that purpose.
