RFR: 8359235: C1 compilation fails with "assert(is_single_stack() && !is_virtual()) failed: type check" [v3]

> I'm able to consistently reproduce the problem using the following command line and test program ：
> 
> java -Xcomp -XX:TieredStopAtLevel=1 -XX:C1MaxInlineSize=200 Test.java
> 
> import java.util.Arrays;
> public class Test{
>       public static void main(String[] args) {
>         System.out.println("begin"); 
>         byte[] arr1 = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9};
>         byte[] arr2 = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9};
>         System.out.println(Arrays.equals(arr1, arr2)); 
>         System.out.println("end");
>     }
> }

> From my analysis, the root cause appears to be a mismatch in operand handling between T_ADDRESS and T_LONG in LIR_Assembler::stack2reg, especially when the source is marked as double stack (e.g., T_LONG) and the destination as single CPU register (e.g., T_ADDRESS), leading to assertion failures like assert(is_single_stack())(because T_LONG is double_size).
> 
> In the test program above , the call chain is: Arrays.equals → ArraysSupport.vectorizedMismatch → LIRGenerator::do_vectorizedMismatch
> Within the do_vectorizedMismatch() method, a move instruction constructs an LIR_Op1. During LIR to machine code generation, LIR_Assembler::stack2reg was called.
> 
> In this case, the src operand has type T_LONG and the dst operand has type T_ADDRESS. This combination triggers an assert in stack2reg, due to a mismatch between the stack slot type and register type handling.

> Importantly, this path ( LIR_Assembler::stack2reg was called )  is only taken when src is forced onto the stack. To reliably trigger this condition, the test is run with the -Xcomp option to force compilation and increase register pressure.

> On 64-bit platforms, although T_ADDRESS is classified as single_size, it is in fact 64 bits wide ,represent a single 64-bit general-purpose register  and  it can hold a T_LONG value, which is also 64 bits.
> 
> However, T_LONG is defined as double_size, requiring two local variable slots or a pair of registers in the JVM's abstract model. This mismatch stems from the fact that T_ADDRESS is platform-dependent: it's 32 bits on 32-bit platforms, and 64 bits on 64-bit platforms — yet its size classification remains single_size regardless.
