ClassOf

final case class ClassOf(name: Top) extends Val

A reference to java.lang.Class[_] of given symbol name.

Instances are emitted as global variables during code feneration. They are used to deduplicate Class instances. There should be only 1 instance per type.

Note that, althrough they are currently emitted as global variables, instances of this type could be constants. However, when we added multithreading and object monitors, we needed to edit one of its fields (specifically, lockWord), which contains an ObjectMonitor or a bit set of lock word.
