> This patch marks all relocations incompressible as pre-discussions at [1] and converts instructions to their 2-byte compressible counterparts as much as possible when UseRVC is enabled.
> 
> Chaining PR #10421.
> 
> 1. Code size reduction rate: about ~17% now after this patch under RVC, meaning if there's a piece of code of 1000 bytes, it may shrink to 830 bytes when RVC is enabled. [2]
> 2. Performance: conservatively no regressions observed. [3]
> 
> The overloaded `relocate()` methods hide `IncompressibleRegion`s inside, to exclude instructions used at relocations from being compressed.
> 
> 
> Having tested several times hotspot tier1~tier4; Testing another turn on board.
