[GROOVY-4965] shim classes generated incorrectly in 1.8.1 (was fine in 1.8.0) for some static inner-class usages

Description

Static inner classes that are imported into Groovy scripts just fine in 1.8 are causing compilation issues in 1.8.1

To reproduce:
1) Java class Foo.Bar where Bar is public static within Foo.
2) Groovy script references the Foo.Bar as a type with an arglist to a method.

3) Groovy/Maven/Shim compiler puts a $ in the generated Java source name instead of a dot.

As I said, all that changed between working and not working is the version of Groovy. This worked in 1.8.0 and at least some recent 1.7.x versions.
