[lworld] RFR: 8247746: [lworld] TestNullableArray::test78 fails with ZGC due to incorrect result

A missing control dependency between an oop load from an array and the corresponding "is-not-flat" check led to
re-ordering of the load to before the check. Although the result is only used in the "not-flat" case, ZGC load barriers
are still executed on that "oop" that is actually a non-oop field of the flattened inline type array element. In rare
cases, the following barrier code screws up the contents of that field:
