Hi,
It seems that the method name used in 8165793[1], "isParallelCapable",
was a little *too* intuitive. An existing use of that method name has
been uncovered (via NetBeans, in Eclipse Equinox).
Because the newly added method was marked final, the pre-existing method
results in a VerifyError under JDK 9 (for overriding a final method).
Please review my fix, which makes ClassLoader.isParallelCapable()
non-final. The semantics of such a boolean-returning isXXXX method are
clear - it's unlikely that existing methods would use different semantics.
I've included an @apiNote (ala ClassLoader.getName()) explaining that
the non-final-ness here is strictly for compatibility.

looks good to me.
Thanks!
