RFR: 8297606: [AIX] Broken build after JDK-8295475 [v3]

[David Holmes]

Directly cc'ing build-dev. Once this became a build-only fix the build 
team should have been included just so they are aware of the change.

Cheers,
David

>>> Recent changes (https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/10745) to ResourceObj, have caused the build to fail on AIX. This is because the AIX compiler (xlclang++) complains if 'operator new' is called on a class where 'operator delete' is marked as deleted (ie. `operator delete(void*) = delete`). This is the case even when 'operator new' is explicitly defined.

An alternate solution is to change ResouceObj to AnyObj in 61 places. This alternative solution works since AnyObj defines both 'operator new' and 'operator delete'. This is both a much bigger change, and doesn't provide any additional benefit if instances of ResourceObj are being reviewed anyway.
