[aarch64-port-dev ] AOT for AArch64: current status

[Yang Zhang]

Hi Andrew

When I tested the new patch, I found there is a test case which is
passed with release jdk build, but is failed with fastdebug/slowdebug
jdk build.

compiler/aot/cli/jaotc/CompileClassWithDebugTest.java

With fastdebug:
TEST RESULT: Failed. Execution failed: `main' threw exception:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Expected to get exit value of [0]

This failure results from "Fix out-of-range branch " patch
https://github.com/theRealAph/graal/commit/d2ed61967b202cc9f623387619902315df20ede6

Regards
Yang
