An assert in the management.cpp is too strong and assumes the max size is always defined on memory pools, even when we don't need to use it.

The way we were caluclating the max value meant that it might fluctuate during the run and this broke some assumptions inside the MBeans framework. This change sets the max value of each pool to -1, which means undefined according to the spec.

Weakened a too-strong, off-by-one assert; added code to keep track of and report any overflows at appropriate level of verbosity.

Allow for the possibility (when the heap is expanding) that the sweep might skip over and past, rather than necessarily step on, the sweep limit determined at the beginning of a concurrent marking cycle.

The changes introduced for 6975078 assign badHeapOopVal to the _allocation field in the ResourceObj class. In 32 bit linux builds with certain versions of gcc this assignment will be flagged as an error while compiling allocation.cpp. In 32 bit builds the constant value badHeapOopVal (which is cast to an intptr_t) is negative. The _allocation field is typed as an unsigned intptr_t and gcc catches this as an error.

We're renaming "evacuation failure" to "to-space overflow". I'm also piggy-backing a small additional change which removes the "Mark closure took..." output.

There are a few issues in the code that calculates whether to resize the heap and by how much: a) some calculations can overflow 32-bit size_t's, b) min_desired_capacity is not bounded by the max heap size, and c) the assrt that fires is in the wrong place. The fix also includes some tidying up of the related verbose code.

GC workers now recognize an intermediate transient state of blocks which are allocated but have not yet completed initialization. blk_start() calls do not attempt to determine the size of a block in the transient state, rather waiting for the block to become initialized so that it is safe to query its size. Audited and ensured the order of initialization of object fields (klass, free bit and size) to respect block state transition protocol. Also included some new assertion checking code enabled in debug mode.

Volatile store to static variable removed in favour of a volatile store to stack to avoid excessive cache coherency traffic; verified that the volatile store is not elided by any of our current compilers.
