Description

Java 6 includes a "StackMapTable" type that is used for its new split
verification scheme. This means many Code attributes will have StackMapTable
attributes attached. This format is similar but not quite identical to the
already implemented StackMap.

I have developed a patch that adds the necessary functionality to the classfile
parser (mostly by copy-pasting code from StackMap and StackMapEntry), and will
attach it shortly
