The prolog in `BytecodeInterpreter` is hairy due to early initialization of interpreter statics. Previous rewrites make it mostly redundant, and we can now simplify it.
This also implicitly fixes a initialization bug. If `JvmtiExport::can_post_interpreter_events()` changes at runtime, we will call into the uninitialized version:
    // Call the interpreter
    if (JvmtiExport::can_post_interpreter_events()) {
      BytecodeInterpreter::run<true>(istate);
    } else {
      BytecodeInterpreter::run<false>(istate);
    } 
Additional testing:
 - [ ] Linux x86_64 fastdebug `make bootcycle-images`
