Type information includes node bottom types (`Node::bottom_type()`) and node phase types (GVN, IGVN, CCP) as IGV node properties `bottom_type` and `phase_type`. It also adds a filter (`Show types`) to display type information in the node labels:

It shows the bottom type of each node (which is always available), followed by the phase type (prefixed with `P:`) if this is also available and differs from the bottom type (see, for example, node `124 AddI` in the picture above).

The additional type information and the buffer size change increase the size of the dumped graphs by around 10% on average.

This is a very nice improvement! The VM changes look good to me.
