This PR changes `jdk.internal.vm.ci` such that it is loaded by the platform 
class loader instead of the boot class loader. This allows Native Image to load 
a version of JVMCI different than the version on top of which Native Image is 
running. This capability is demonstrated and tested by 
`LoadAlternativeJVMCI.java`.
