Ignore the signature-polymorphic MethodHandle in Animal Sniffer (#719)
javac records the ad-hoc call-site descriptor for MethodHandle's
invokers (invokeExact, invoke), which no signature database lists, so
the Animal Sniffer check on JDK 8 flags every such call site as an
undefined reference even though the invokers exist on all supported
targets (Java 7+).
