I've got a minimal repro and some more info about this:

using System.Collections.Generic;

// Regression test for https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/77070
public static class Gvm77070
{
    public static int Run()
    {
        var deserializer = new JsonDeserializer();
        var visitor = new Release.SerdeVisitor();
        deserializer.DeserializeDictionary<Release, Release.SerdeVisitor>(visitor);
        return 100;
    }

    public partial record struct Release
    {
        public sealed class SerdeVisitor : IDeserializeVisitor<Release>
        {
            void IDeserializeVisitor<Release>.VisitDictionary<D>(ref D d)
            {
                d.GetNextValue<DictWrap<string, StringWrap, string>>();
            }
        }
    }

    public record StringWrap(string Value)
        : IDeserialize
    {
        public static void Deserialize<D>(ref D deserializer)
            where D : IDeserializer
        {
        }
    }

    public readonly struct DictWrap<TKey, TKeyWrap, TValue> : IDeserialize
        where TKey : notnull
        where TKeyWrap : IDeserialize
    {
        static void IDeserialize.Deserialize<D>(ref D deserializer)
        {
            deserializer.DeserializeDictionary<Dictionary<TKey, TValue>, Visitor>(new Visitor());
        }
        private sealed class Visitor : IDeserializeVisitor<Dictionary<TKey, TValue>>
        {
            void IDeserializeVisitor<Dictionary<TKey, TValue>>.VisitDictionary<D>(ref D d)
            {
                d.GetNextValue<TKeyWrap>();
            }
        }
    }

    public interface IDeserializeVisitor<T>
    {
        void VisitDictionary<D>(ref D d) where D : IDeserializeDictionary;
    }

    public interface IDeserialize
    {
        static abstract void Deserialize<D>(ref D deserializer) where D : IDeserializer;
    }

    public interface IDeserializeDictionary
    {
        void GetNextValue<D>() where D : IDeserialize;
    }

    public interface IDeserializer
    {
        void DeserializeDictionary<T, V>(V v) where V : class, IDeserializeVisitor<T>;
    }
    public sealed partial class JsonDeserializer : IDeserializer
    {
        public void DeserializeDictionary<T, V>(V v) where V : class, IDeserializeVisitor<T>
        {
            var map = new DeDictionary(this);
            v.VisitDictionary(ref map);
        }

        private struct DeDictionary : IDeserializeDictionary
        {
            private JsonDeserializer _deserializer;
            public DeDictionary(JsonDeserializer de)
            {
                _deserializer = de;
            }

            public void GetNextValue<D>() where D : IDeserialize
            {
                D.Deserialize(ref _deserializer);
            }
        }
    }
}

The problem appears to be something about static interface methods with generics. It looks like this is blowing up in the type loader, which doesn't know how to work with this method specification. I'm not sure what the fix is, but I'm still looking into it.

Workaround is the following RD.XML (I constructed thing by looking up the symbols associated with the addresses in the FailFast) - it pregenerates the method dictionary we're failing to build at runtime:

<Directives>
  <Application>
    <Assembly Name="repro">
      <Type Name="Gvm77070+DictWrap`3+Visitor[[System.String, mscorlib],[Gvm77070+StringWrap],[System.String,mscorlib]]">
        <Method Name="Gvm77070.IDeserializeVisitor&lt;System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary&lt;TKey,TValue>>.VisitDictionary" Dynamic="Required All">
          <GenericArgument Name="Gvm77070+JsonDeserializer+DeDictionary" />
        </Method>
      </Type>
    </Assembly>
  </Application>
</Directives>

I looked at this in a debugger myself and yep, this needs to be fixed in the type loader (we need to implement the missing dictionary kind that this is throwing about) and it is a hard fix:

We need to call into GVM resolution logic as part of type loading and build whatever GVM resolution logic came up with. Either that or generate something that will allow us to lazily resolve this once it's needed.

Touching anything in the type loader is pretty high risk. To set expectations, the fix might be too risky for servicing.

Allow struct visitors and use them for compound deserialize
