Description

Multi-Dim Arrays are currently not supported.

When a Java method returns such an array and this return value is used in Groovy code,
there should be an appropriate error message.

See test/groovy/SomeClass.java and test/groovy/MultiDimArraysTest for examples.
The current Error Message is

Caught: java.lang.ClassFormatError: gjdk/[Ljava/lang/String;_GroovyReflectorArray (Illegal Class name "gjdk/[Ljava/lang/String;_GroovyReflectorArray")
