Adapter sharing is broken with -XX:+ValueTypePassFieldsAsArgs

Hi,

please review the following fix:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~thartmann/valhalla/vt_prototype/webrev.12/

The C2I and I2C adapters of different methods are shared if the methods have a matching signature. Arguments of type T_BOOLEAN, T_BYTE, T_SHORT and T_CHAR are widened to type T_INT. This does not work with -XX:+ValueTypePassFieldsAsArgs because value types are passed field-by-field and to be able to load/store the correct values from/to the buffer, we need an adapter that matches with the exact field type in the signature.

Thanks to Fred for catching and reporting this issue!

Best regards,
Tobias
