review for 7088955: add C2 IR support to the SA

[Christian Thalinger]

I get these two lines printed by vmStructs.cpp when running a debug VM:

type "jushort" not found
type "jushort" not found

Seems like it's coming from:

  c2_nonstatic_field(Node,               _class_id,                jushort)                                                          \
  c2_nonstatic_field(Node,               _flags,                   jushort)                                                          \
