Request for review(XL): 6985015: C1 needs to support compressed oops

[Vladimir Kozlov]

Igor,

I don't like adding new br instructions which are used only 4 times.
Could you simple totally separate code for COOP and use corresponding br (icc) instructions?

Also there are no explanation/comments around new move_wide code. Why you need it (append()?) ? I am not C1 expert so it 
is not clear to me.

Otherwise it is better then before.

Thanks,
Vladimir
