> Before intergration of JEP 450, a number of minor regressions have been identified. The root-cause of those is the additional flag-check for UseCompactObjectHeaders in a couple of hot code-paths. This change addresses those cases by introducing a new helper class ObjLayout, which initializes some global state depending on the flags, and use that state later, instead of loading and checking multiple flags in hot paths.

The real fix will eventually be to get rid of UseCompressedClassPointers in a first step, and later also get rid of UseCompactObjectHeaders, and settle on a single object layout. But we are not there, yet, and it will take several (or many) releases to get there. In the meantime, the proposed change eliminates the remaining known regressions.
