[lworld] RFR: 8370904: [lworld] Enable CDS heap dumping

CDS heap dumping was manually disabled in lworld due to the method in which the migrated value classes were added to the JDK. Migrated value classes were added through module patching which is incompatible with CDS heap dumping, but now since they are added through jimage, we can re-enable CDS heap dumping and related features that rely on it.

AOT adds some complexity to this as it loads and links classes in VM startup, so alternate code paths need to be considered. Signature calling conventions are stored in adapters which are archived in the AOT code cache, but they aren't usable at runtime, so they need to be regenerated even if we don't regenerate the adapters.
