RFR: 8266252: Streamline AbstractInterpreter::method_kind [v4]

[Claes Redestad]

> This patch refactors AbstractInterpreter::method_kind to reduce branches on average while better compartmentalizing the exceptional cases.
> 
> Additionally Method::is_empty_method is trivial enough that making it inlineable helps reduce cost while reducing size of the libjvm.
> 
> Result is a 40% speed-up, or a reduction of .25% of instructions on Hello World that scales to larger applications.
