Not all GCs are supported by Zero, because it requires implementing the GC barriers in C++
interpreter. Now that we have jvm features that can selectively disable particular GCs, we can only
build supported GCs. This avoids surprise build failures like these:

Testing: x86_64 Zero build, running GCBasher with the rest of GCs

Thanks,
