The two big pieces here are basic invokedynamic support and a working
version of LambdaMetaFactory.metafactory. The latter works by
dynamically building a synthetic class with three methods: a static
factory method, a constructor for the factory method to call, and a
method to satisfy the requested interface which defers to the
specified MethodHandle.
This work relies heavily on Avian's specific MethodType and
MethodHandle implementations, which provide extra, non-standard
features to make code generation easier. That means we'll probably
need to use Avian's versions of java.lang.invoke.* even when building
with the OpenJDK or Android class libraries.
