Customer Impact
It's not possible to build the TechEmpower benchmarks (or the default MVC Razor template) with NativeAOT because the compiler crashes. See #75746 for stack.
Testing
Verified the benchmark can now be built. Passes all NativeAOT testing we have.
Risk
Low, the fix is relatively conservative and switched from looking at the layout of
RuntimeDetermined
types to__Canon
types (that behave identically as far as layout is concerned). This codepath is exercised pretty extensively. The buggy codepath required some very unique conditions to repro and is specific to layouts of RuntimeDetermined types.
