Crossgen2 is missing support for CORINFO_FIELD_STATIC_ADDRESS

[trylek]

We could achieve minor perf improvement when accessing statics by implementing the static address helper (ldsflda). Crossgen1 doesn't do this, it bails out at this point:

runtime/src/coreclr/src/zap/zapinfo.cpp

Line 3216 in 58cf146

ThrowHR(E_NOTIMPL);

For now I'm about to add a similar clause with a reference to this issue to Crossgen2 as otherwise it causes failures with composite R2R at runtime due to System.Console.get_Out which uses ldsflda on System.Console.s_out.

appears to be resolved?

I don't believe this is resolved. We now bail out, which matches crossgen behavior, but when targeting the container compile scenario, it is clear that a large number cases of the bail out are being hit by async state machine code. So, this bail out is a significant negative towards achieving our goals of crossgen2 having better AOT compilation for containers.
