>> Modify the C2 compiler to share trampoline stubs between static calls that resolve to the same callee method. Since the relocation target for all static calls is initially set to the static call resolver stub, the call's target alone cannot be used to distinguish between different static method calls. Instead, trampoline stubs should be shared based on the actual callee.

However, due to imprecise log analysis, the test currently passes even when trampolines are not shared. Additionally, comments within the test suggest ambiguity regarding whether it was intended to assess trampoline sharing for static calls or runtime calls. To address these issues and eliminate ambiguity, this patch renames and updates the existing test. Furthermore, a new test is introduced, using the existing one as a foundation, to accurately evaluate trampoline sharing for both static and runtime calls.

@theRealAph , I've tried the above and it seems to work as intended. Please let me know if you find that solution more suitable and I'll prepare a patch for submission.
