`index_oop_from_field_offset_long` is sometimes used to access an absolute address by using `p == nullptr`. Unfortunately, `nullptr + byte_offset` implies undefined behavior and should better get fixed. UBSan complains about it (see JBS issue).
A possible solution is to replace pointer arithmetic by integer arithmetic. We can use unsigned because `assert_field_offset_sane` checks that `byte_offset >= 0`.
