When we need to obtain a new InterpMethodContextFrame for called method execution, we try to obtain a preallocated one from the list. If there is none, then we just allocate a new one with alloca and initialize the fields, including the ip to 0 initially. The problem is that the compiler is free to reorder this initialization in whichever way it considers optimal. If a stack overflow gets triggered at some point during execution (at a location that we don't normally expect), the unwinder might actually observe a pushed interp frame that has a non-null junk ip. We fix this by making sure the ip is properly zeroed before we publish the new interpreter frame on the list. Order is achieved just via compiler barriers.

Should fix stackoverflowtester on win-arm64.

@janvorli Miraculously, this actually fixed the failing test. It would be great if you could reproduce the failure and validate the theory, but I believe the fix is simplistic enough anyway and it doesn't impact any hot path.

@janvorli Had to move the definition from volatile.h, since it was breaking windows build due to some ASSERTE conflicts. Ended up defining the method only in interpexec.cpp for now. Your approval is now stale.
