This change simplifies the code that grows the jmethodID cache in 
InstanceKlass.  Instead of lazily, when there's a rare request for a jmethodID 
for an obsolete method, the jmethodID cache is grown during the RedefineClasses 
safepoint.  The InstanceKlass's jmethodID cache is lazily allocated when 
there's a jmethodID allocated, so not every InstanceKlass has a cache, but the 
growth now only happens in a safepoint.  This code will become racy with the 
potential change for deallocating jmethodIDs.

Tested with tier1-4, vmTestbase/nsk/jvmti java/lang/instrument tests (in case 
they're not in tier1-4).
