Summary: Also follow nmethods found on the execution stack.
I have this fix to follow nmethods found on the execution stack but not
really a good way to test it. There are two tests internally that
exercise this code and with some printing, I verified that they do the
right thing. I am open to suggestions how to test this, it requires
compiled methods on the stack with oops that are only referenced from
said methods in the oop section (not in locals or on stack).
Also ran the tonga colocated/non-colocated internal tests,
jdk/test/com/sun/jdi.
