Description
While the cache of constant symbols in entries such as NameAndType or MethodType greatly improve performance for descriptor parsing, in many scenarios, such as annotation class values or method descriptors, symbols are directly represented by a Utf8 entry. We can improve the applicability of symbols if we move the cache field to Utf8 directly.
