Avoid std::string allocations for finding an array class.

Introduce ClassLinker::FindArrayClass which performs an array class lookup
given the element/component class. This has a 16 element cache of recently
looked up arrays.
Pass the current thread to ClassLinker Find .. Class routines to avoid calls
to Thread::Current().
Avoid some uses of FindClass in the debugger where WellKnownClasses is a
faster and more compacting GC friendly alternative.
