The JITServer AOT cache will now refuse to generate class records for array ROM classes. This is relevant for clients running with -XX:+JITServerAOTCacheIgnoreLocalSCC - with this option disabled, the fact that array classes cannot be persisted in the local SCC acts as an implicit barrier to their ROM classes ever reaching the AOT cache. Without that option, the AOT cache must explicitly check that the given ROM class is not an array ROM class.
In future, the AOT cache should be extended with support for array classes. For now, this change prevents excessive AOT cache deserialization failures from occurring at JITServer clients running with -XX:+JITServerAOTCacheIgnoreLocalSCC due to the nonsensical class records the cache previously generated for array classes.
