[foreign-memaccess+abi] RFR: 8292957: Remove redundant MemoryLayout::is* methods

This PR removes the public API methods `MemoryLayout::isPadding`, `GroupLayout::isStruct`, and `GroupLayout::isSequence`. Now that the `MemoryLayout` sealed hierarchy provides the same information, these redundant methods should be removed for reasons of consistency, symmetry, brevity, and simplicity.

See the details and proposed replacements in https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8292957
