JDK-8241825 decoupled `UseCompressedClassPointers` and `UseCompressedOops`, and introduced `COMPRESSED_CLASS_POINTERS_DEPENDS_ON_COMPRESSED_OOPS` that platforms can set to say if their generated code is ready for this decoupling.
Zero defaults to `true` for that flag, meaning the flags are still coupled. But there is not actual coupling: Zero delegates all this work to VM code, which handles everything correctly. This makes at least one test fail with Zero:
$ CONF=linux-x86_64-zero-fastdebug make exploded-test TEST=runtime/CompressedOops/CompressedClassPointers.java
java.lang.RuntimeException: 'Narrow klass base: 0x0000000000000000' missing from stdout/stderr
...
Additional testing:
- [x] Linux x86_64 Zero `runtime/CompressedOops/` tests
