RFR: 8171082: [AOT] AOT'd SystemModules.modules() fails to load when too large

[Vladimir Kozlov]

Thank you, Rickard, for fixing this.

It is really unfortunate that we put code method's aot into code buffer before we process its metadata when do AOT 
compilation.

One thing we can additionally do is mark a method as invalid if publish_aot() does not publish it:

_code_to_aot[code_id]._state = invalid

Thanks,
Vladimir
