* java/io/ObjectInputStream.java
	(getField): Handle transient and non persistent fields.
	(readClassDescriptor): Better error handling, use the right
	class loader.
	(readFields): Fields marked as not present in the stream
	or not to be set are not read and set.
	* java/io/ObjectInputStream.java
	(readFields): Changed implementation of GetField.
	(readClassDescriptor): Documented.
	* java/io/ObjectOutputStream.java
	(writeClassDescriptor): Added condition when to write class super
	class information.
