Let HeapRegionSeq manage the heap region and auxiliary data to decrease the amount of responsibilities of G1CollectedHeap, and encapsulate this work from other code.

The free list is being maintained in a sorted fashion and old and humongous regions are allocated from the bottom of the heap while young regions are allocated at the top.

This changeset removes the zero-filling thread from G1 and collapses the two free region lists we had before (the "free" and "unclean" lists) into one. The new free list uses the new heap region sets / lists abstractions that we'll ultimately use it to keep track of all regions in the heap. A heap region set was also introduced for the humongous regions. Finally, this change increases the concurrency between the thread that completes freeing regions (after a cleanup pause) and the rest of the system (before we'd have to wait for said thread to complete before allocating a new region). The changest also includes a lot of refactoring and code simplification.
