Provide more information when hitting SIGILL from HaltNode

        There are existing usages of Halt for optimizing unsafe accesses (e.g., GraphKit::must_be_not_null), but, as a future enhancement, it would be nice to provide more information about the root cause of the crash. As an example, JDK-8219902 [1] which involved Halt execution manifested as:

           # SIGILL (0x4) at pc=0x00007f55b4df37d6, pid=15865, tid=15869
           #
           # JRE version: OpenJDK Runtime Environment (13.0+9) (build 13-ea+9)
           # Java VM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (13-ea+9, mixed mode, sharing,
        tiered, compressed oops, g1 gc, linux-amd64)
           # Problematic frame:
           # J 10152 c2

        Without laborous analysis of generated code, it's impossible to say
        whether it's a JVM bug or a problem in user code. I believe JVM can do better in such situations and print meaningful error message instead when crashing.
