RFR(XS): JDK-8199780: SetMemory0 and CopyMemory0 in unsafe.cpp need to resolve their operands

Hi Roman,

Is there a good reason why the Access<>::resolve is not performed inside 
of index_oop_from_field_offset_long instead of its callsites. For 
example, it looks like barriers are missing in Unsafe_CopySwapMemory0, 
that you would get for free by putting the resolve barrier in the API 
used in this file for resolving addresses.

Thanks,
/Erik
