[foreign-memaccess+abi] RFR: 8255903: Enable multi-register return values for native invokers [v4]

[Jorn Vernee]

> Hi,
> 
> This patch implements support for multi-register returns in native invokers, and removes the buffered invocation strategy for downcalls. This is achieved, essentially, by using an in memory return: the caller allocates a bit of memory, and the native invoker stub writes the values of the return register to that memory. Then, the post processing code reads the register values back from there.

> Currently, the target address of a downcall is handled separately from the other arguments. I initially implemented passing the IMR address the same way, but I realized the removal of the buffered invocation strategy affords us a better way of doing things: we can just make the target address and the IMR address part of the normal calling sequence, and remove a bunch of special-casing code to handle these. We now just use a binding recipe to unbox these arguments and shuffle them into registers, and the ABIDescriptor tells the native invoker stub which registers to pick up these arguments from.
