[lworld] RFR: 8335256: [lworld] C2: Remove larval InlineTypeNode [v5]

> The root issue is that a larval value object is fundamentally different from a non-larval one. The most important thing is that it has a unique identity and it expects any modification on 1 reference observable by all other equivalent references. As a result, we need a mechanism to track the identity of a larval object, which `InlineTypeNode` does not provide. My current proposal to fix this issue is to abandon larval `InlineTypeNode`s and use the oop like other objects.

> There are 2 equivalent references in the stack at the loop entry. When `Parse::merge` encounters them, it cannot know that these are the same because the back-edge has not been processed yet. As a result, it creates 2 separate `Phi`s for these references. Then, `invokespecial` will only make the top of the stack a non-larval object, not the next one, which is the one returned to the caller. As a result, we fail with `assert(!value->is_InlineType() || !value->as_InlineType()->is_larval(), "returning a larval")`. Worse, if the method is osr-compiled at the loop head, we have 2 separate references fed into the compiled function and there is no way we may know that they are of the same object.
