I am following up on the performance issue where the culprit seems to be the too low `OptoLoopAlignment`. To perform better experiments, I suggest allowing larger alignments.
Note that we cannot make `OptoLoopAlignment` larger than `CodeEntryAlignment`, because nmethod copy would break it, see assert in `MacroAssembler::align`. See [JDK-8273459](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8273459) for latest discussion about it. So `CodeEntryAlignment` needs to be configurable as well.
The default values for options are different per platform, so tests are x86_64 specific.
No default value is changed, this only unblocks experiments.
Additional testing:
- [x] New tests on Linux x86_64 fastdebug
- [x] New tests on Linux x86_64 release
