RFR: 8261447: MethodInvocationCounters frequently run into overflow [v7]

[Lutz Schmidt]

> Dear community,
> may I please request reviews for this fix, improving the usefulness of method invocation counters.
> - aggregation counters are retyped as uint64_t, shifting the overflow probability way out (185 days in case of a 1 GHz counter update frequency).
> - counters for individual methods are interpreted as (unsigned int), in contrast to their declaration as int. This gives us a factor of two before the counters overflow.
> - as a special case, "compiled_invocation_counter" is retyped as long, because it has a higher update frequency than other counters.
> - before/after sample output is attached to the bug description. 
> 
> Thank you!
> Lutz
