8333377: Migrate Generic Signature parsing to ClassFile API
Core reflection's generic signature parsing uses an ancient library with outdated visitor pattern on a tree model and contains unnecessary boilerplates. This is a duplication of ClassFile API's signature model. We should just move to ClassFile API, which is more throughoutly tested as well.
To ensure compatibility, new tests are added to ensure consistent behavior when encountering malformed signatures or signatures with missing types. The reflective objects have been preserved and the only change is that lazy expansion now happens from CF objects, to reduce compatibility risks.

I think I'll need to be one of the reviews on this, but don't anticipate being able to review it before JDK 23 rampdown. Therefore, I think this would be appropriate to be targeted to JDK 24.
Indeed, I put the JBS issue to target release 24. I believe given the potential behavioral changes, rushing into release 23 is a risky choice. (the 4 new tests can target 23 in a separate patch, but they require removal of a few redundant assertions in old generic code)

@liach Please do not rebase or force-push to an active PR as it invalidates existing review comments. Note for future reference, the bots always squash all changes into a single commit automatically as part of the integration. See OpenJDK Developers’ Guide for more information.
Sorry for the force push - Too many commits meaning fixing merge conflicts in every single one of them was a bit complicated.

After a revisit to this PR, I think I might split the work of improving BytecodeDescriptor error message and tests covering failure-case behaviors into a prerequisite PR to this one, to ensure this PR preserves the failure behavior present on mainline.
