      The symbolic constants API (`java.lang.constant`) was designed, in part, to provide bytecode parsing and generation APIs with a validated, common, symbolic form for constants in Java class files.

      Constants API already provides models for all *loadable constants*, however no nominal descriptors modelling modules and packages are available.

      Constants API should provide the modules and packages nominal descriptors with validation.
