> 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.
