Hi,
devirtualizing Relocation::type() means a throughput increase in places 
such as Assembler::emit_operand (-15% instructions, fewer branches), due
enabling more aggressive inlining.
Several of these places are sensitive to startup/warmup. For example
paths taken when generating the interpreter, runtime adapters and by C1
improve, and the refactoring here has a measurable win on #instructions,
#branches (-0.4% on Hello World) etc, on a range of startup tests.
Bug:    https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8240302

Testing: tier1-5
Thanks!
