RFR: 8286944: Loom: Common ContinuationEntry cookie handling

Platform-specific code injects the cookie to the head of ContinuationEntry. The value for this cookie is hard-coded in platform-specific code, which is fragile. It would be better to common the cookie handling a bit to ease porting. In fact, I have spent an hour trying to debug a thing where I mistyped a cookie value in x86_32 code, hence my interest.

Additional testing:
 - [x] Linux x86_64 fastdebug, `java/lang/Thread/virtual`
 - [ ] Linux AArch64 fastdebug, `java/lang/Thread/virtual`
