Stubs that can be called once an ArrayCopyNode is expanded have different signatures:

// arraycopy stub variations:                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
enum ArrayCopyType {
  ac_fast,                      // void(ptr, ptr, size_t)                                                                                                                                                                                                                       
  ac_checkcast,                 //  int(ptr, ptr, size_t, size_t, ptr)                                                                                                                                                                                                           
  ac_slow,                      // void(ptr, int, ptr, int, int)                                                                                                                                                                                                                 
  ac_generic                    //  int(ptr, int, ptr, int, int)                                                                                                                                                                                                                 
};
