C2 will now remove the slow call to `ValueObjectMethods::isSubstitutable(Alt)` whenever it's able to determine the layout of one of the operands. It will then emit code to directly compare the fields.
This patch also contains an intrinsic for `_getFieldMap` that will be used by the new core-libs implementation of the substitutability check ([JDK-8370450](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8370450)) that's used by the interpreter / C1 and as a slow path in C2.
When browsing code, I marked a few rough edges in unrelated code for follow-up cleanups with the corresponding bug numbers.
Testing: tier1-tier6 + valhalla-comp-stress
Thanks,
Tobias
