RFR: 8372634: C2: Materialize type information from instanceof checks [v3]

[Vladimir Ivanov]

> Proposed fix annotates operands of subtype checks with proper type information which reflects the effects of subtype check. Not-yet-canonicalized IR shape poses some challenges, but I decided to match it early so information is available right away, rather than waiting for IGVN pass and delay inlining to post-parse phase.

I experimented with annotating subtype checks after initial parsing pass is over, but the crucial simplification step happens as part of split-if transformation which happens when no more inlining is possible. So, the only possible benefit (without forcing split-if optimization earlier) is virtual-to-direct call strength reduction. I plan to explore it separately.
