Most of the changes are needed to handle extended frames, i.e c1 or c2 frames that use more stack space for arguments than the stack space allocated by the caller. These include changes in freeze and thaw code, plus changes in the stackChunk walking code where we now need a similar repair of the caller sp as in the current sender code. In this case though, we only adjust _unextended_sp and keep the value of _sp. This is because frames are walked without a full RegisterMap, but we still need to be able to access the saved fp in the callee for gc purposes. The remaining changes deal with saving and restoring the extra return registers when calling thaw.

I also run the changes with the valhalla-comp-stress job in mach5. It uncovered a couple of extra failures in TestVirtualThreads.java, but I was able to reproduce them with platform threads as well (8367151 and 8367258). I also added extra testing for value classes in existing test Fuzz.java which has proven very useful too.
