> Please, review this PR to fix issue in debug information serialization encountered when RAM reduces a Phi for which one of the inputs is an object already scalar replaced.

> **Details:**

> Consider class `Picture` that has two reference fields, `first` and `second` of type `Point`. In a random method in the application an object `obj` of this class is created, and the fields of this object are initialized such that `first` is assigned a new object whereas `second` receives the output of a `Phi` node merging the object assigned to `first` and some other allocation. Also, assumes `obj` is used as debug information in an `uncommon_trap` and none of these objects escapes. I.e., we have a scenario like this:

>
> Picture obj = new Picture(); // allocation A
> obj.first = new Point(); // allocation B
>
> Point p2 = obj.first;
> if (<cond>) p2 = new Point(); // allocation C
>
> obj.second = p2;
>
> <trap>
>

> After one iteration of EA+SR, Allocation `A` will be scalar replaced and debug information in `<Trap>` adjusted accordingly. The description of field `second` in the debug information on `<Trap>` will, however, still involve a `Phi` node between allocation `B` and `C`. In the next iteration of EA+SR the `Phi` node for field `second` will be reduced by RAM and debug information will be adjusted accordingly. So far nothing is wrong.

> The issue happens because the existing code in `Process_OopMap_Node` to serialize debug information was missing a check. Simply, the check for setting `is_root` of an `ObjectValue` wasn't checking that the `ObjectValue` might be a description of a field of a scalar replaced object. It was only checking whether `ObjectValue` was a local, stack or monitor. Consequently, the allocation assigned to `obj.first` (yes, `first`) was **not** being marked as _root_.
>
> But the issue only manifested if the `<trap>` was exercised **AND** the result of `<cond>` was _true_. If the result of `<cond>` was `false` when the trap was exercised, then no problem would happen. The reason is, when `<cond>` is _true_ the `select` method in [ObjectMergeValue](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/1472124489c841642996ae984e21c533ffec8091/src/hotspot/share/code/debugInfo.cpp#L237) would flag, correctly, that the allocation inside the `if` needs to be rematerialized and the other input of the ObjectMergeValue shouldn't be rematerialized because `_is_root == false`, meaning it's just a candidate for rematerialization.
