> Implementation changes for [JEP 500: Prepare to Make Final Mean 
> Final](https://openjdk.org/jeps/500).
> 
> Field.set (and Lookup.unreflectSetter) are changed to allow/warn/debug/deny 
> when mutating a final instance field. JFR event recorded if final field 
> mutated. Spec updates to Field.set, Field.setAccessible and Module.addOpens 
> to align with the proposal in the JEP.
> 
> HotSpot is updated to add support for the new command line options. To aid 
> diagnosability, -Xcheck:jni reports a warning and -Xlog:jni=debug logs a 
> message to help identity JNI code that mutates finals. For now, JNI code is 
> allowed to set the "write-protected" fields System.in/out/err without a 
> warning, we can re-visit once we change the System.setIn/setOut/setErr 
> methods to not use JNI (I prefer to keep this separate to this PR because 
> there is a small startup regression to address when changing System.setXXX).
> 
> There are many new tests. A small number of existing tests are changed to run 
> /othervm as reflectively opening a package isn't sufficient. Changing the 
> tests to /othervm means that jtreg will launch the agent with the command 
> line options to open the package.
> 
> Testing: tier1-6
