Fix lookup of class references in checkType() / checkDescriptor to also inspect superclasses and interfaces

[GoogleCodeExporter]

When adding support for Java 8 and invokeDynamic, there was still a TODO about 
checking supertypes and interfaces when looking at stuff like casts, array 
creation, annotation checks.

This should be fixed, to use the same semantics like for method calls.
