RFR: 8307423: s390x: Represent Registers as values

The recent Register implementation uses wild pointer (including null pointer) dereferences which exhibit undefined behavior. We should migrate away from pointer-based representation of Register values as it was done for x86 ([JDK-8292153](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8292153)). Problems exist when trying to build with GCC 11.3.0 ([JDK-8307093](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8307093)).

Tested `fastdebug, slowdebug, optimized, release build` , `tier1-test` on fastdebug build and build with GCC-9.5.0 as well.
