RFR: 8365256: RelocIterator should use indexes instead of pointers [v2]

[Johan Sjölen]

> Hi,
> 
> This PR replaces the `current` and `end` pointers with a `base` pointer alongside a `current` index and a `len`. This allows us to have `-1` as the initial value for current, while retaining `nullptr` as the 'dead' value for `_mutable_data`.
> 
> Performance testing shows no difference/performance improvements on DaCapo Linux x64. I don't think that these are actual improvements, but at least there are no clear regressions.
> 
> Testing: GHA
