It allows using NonNMethod code space for method handle intrinsics which are needed urgently if the other code cache spaces are full. There are other options (see JBS issue), but this one appears to be the simplest one.

I think the continuation intrinsics (see `Method::is_continuation_native_intrinsic()`) are problematic too. There are no interpreted versions of them. It will be difficult to implement interpreted versions.
