A NullPointerException occurs when installing scripts from persistent cache with optimistic types disabled. When running the script below twice:

$ java -jar dist/nashorn.jar --optimistic-types=false -pcc ./test/script/basic/JDK-8048079_2a.js
parsed and compiled ok prototype.js
$ java -jar dist/nashorn.jar --optimistic-types=false -pcc ./test/script/basic/JDK-8048079_2a.js

Obviously a function in the constants array may not have an initializer when lazy compilation is enabled, so we need to add a null check right there.
