This PR proposes to add a "Record Mapper" that allows `MemorySegment` instances to be projected onto `Record` types given `GroupLayout` instances.
Here is a simple example of how to use the mapper:
private static final GroupLayout POINT_LAYOUT = MemoryLayout.structLayout(
JAVA_INT.withName("x"),
JAVA_INT.withName("y"));
MemorySegment segment = MemorySegment.ofArray(new int[]{3, 4});
Point point = POINT_LAYOUT.recordMapper(Point.class)
.apply(segment); // Point[x=3, y=4]
I think the implementation can be improved later, for example by de-duplicating handling of arrays and maybe add recursive "un-pealing" of multidimensional arrays.
