JDK-8042607 - [TESTBUG] Add native support for jtreg tests
Description
When JDK-8025922 was fixed, no regression test was added for that issue since jtreg does not support native code. But by using -XX:+ExecuteInternalVMTests it is possible to write a JNI test inside the JVM.

Attaching my test for future reference.

-Xcheck:jni does not help in this case.

There are JNI tests in the VM/NSK testsuite. That would be a good place to land a JNI test.

We need easier ways to write JNI regression tests but putting them in the VM is not the right thing to do in my opinion. Plus this kind of test should really be in the real JNI test suites - JCK?
