That class now also has an additional field to encode the size of a stack argument, or a register mask, which can also be used to encode the size of a register argument. This also leads to some stubs needing to be updated on unsupported platforms.

@nick-arm Could you take a look as well?
I've also taken a stab at fixing [Incorrect stack spilling in CallArranger on MacOS/AArch64](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8275584)
Here: https://github.com/JornVernee/panama-foreign/compare/VMStorage2...JornVernee:panama-foreign:Mac_Stack
But there are still some failing tests.
