Bug 558371 - Avoid use of MethodHandle

Use of method handles does not seem to improve performance.  In my
testing it actually makes things slower on Java 8.  Particularly the use
of MethodHandle for calling the constructor for the value to match
against.

Substrate also doesn't like the use of MethodHandles in the
FilterImpl.  For now I think we should avoid using them unless they show
a clear performance win.
