-   * Reconstruct the classfile flags from a Java defined class symbol.
-   *
-   * The implementation of this method is slightly different that [[javaFlags]]. The javaFlags
-   * method is primarily used to map Scala symbol flags to sensible classfile flags that are used
-   * in the generated classfiles. For example, all classes emitted by the Scala compiler have
-   * ACC_PUBLIC.
-   *
-   * When building a [[ClassBType]] from a Java class symbol, the flags in the type's `info` have
-   * to correspond exactly to the flags in the classfile. For example, if the class is package
-   * protected (i.e., it doesn't have the ACC_PUBLIC flag), this needs to be reflected in the
-   * ClassBType. For example, the inliner needs the correct flags for access checks.
-   *
-   * Class flags are listed here:
-   *   https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jvms/se7/html/jvms-4.html#jvms-4.1-200-E.1
