Have ClassLoaderServiceImpl use Class.forName rather than ClassLoader.loadClass
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HHH-7272
                 URL: https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-7272
             Project: Hibernate ORM
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core
            Reporter: Steve Ebersole
            Assignee: Steve Ebersole


Specifically, the publically available form of ClassLoader.loadClass does not invoke static initializers defined for the class (it does not perform any of the "loading, linking or initializing" phases outlined in the Java Language Spec.  

Class.forName does as long as the 'initialize' parameter is set to true.
