Remove limitation on public constructors
----------------------------------------

                 Key: JASSIST-68
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JASSIST-68
             Project: Javassist
          Issue Type: Feature Request
    Affects Versions: 3.8.1.GA
            Reporter: Erik Putrycz
            Assignee: Shigeru Chiba


Currently when extending a class with javassist, it is required that the superclass has a public constructor. However, in some cases, this is not a necessary constraint.
For instance when extending a class and generating a factory with Javassist, it is better to hide the constructor to prevent users to bypass the factory, and this is not possible currently.
This would involve a minor change in inheritAllConstructors() in class CtNewClass
