Enable reference discovery during concurrent marking by setting the reference processor field of the concurrent marking closure. Keep reference objects on the discovered reference lists alive during incremental evacuation pauses until they are processed at the end of concurrent marking.

This change revamps the slow allocation path of G1. Improvements include the following: a) Allocations directly to old regions are now totally banned. G1 now only allows allocations out of young regions (with the only exception being humongous regions). b) The thread that allocates a new region (which is now guaranteed to be young) does not dirty all its cards. Each thread that successfully allocates out of a young region is now responsible for dirtying the cards that corresponding to the "block" that just got allocated. c) allocate_new_tlab() and mem_allocate() are now implemented differently and TLAB allocations are only done by allocate_new_tlab(). d) If a thread schedules an evacuation pause in order to satisfy an allocation request, it will perform the allocation at the end of the safepoint so that the thread that initiated the GC also gets "first pick" of any space made available by the GC. e) If a thread is unable to allocate a humongous object it will schedule an evacuation pause in case it reclaims enough regions so that the humongous allocation can be satisfied aftewards. f) The G1 policy is more careful to set the young list target length to be the survivor number +1. g) Lots of code tidy up, removal, refactoring to make future changes easier.

An evacuation failure while copying the roots caused an object, A, to be forwarded to itself. During the subsequent RSet updating a reference to A was processed causing the reference to be added to the RSet of A's heap region. As a result of adding to the remembered set we ran into the issue described in 6930581 - the sparse table expanded and the RSet scanning code walked the cards in one instance of RHashTable (_cur) while the occupied() counts the cards in the expanded table (_next).

Weakened assert in onj_is_alive() to allow its use at initialization time when is_at_safepoint() normally reports false; added some related asserts to check order of is_init_completed() after Universe::is_fully_initialized().
