RFR/RFC (XS) 8223911: Disable bad node budget verification until the fix

[Aleksey Shipilev]

Bug:
  https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8223911

There is a bug that Patric is handling now. However, fastdebug is broken for more than a week, and
there is no sight of the fix yet. Having this false negative failure is detrimental for testing,
especially given impending fork to 13. Backing out the change seems too harsh. Let's just disable
the assert?

Fix:

     uint required = _nodes_required;
     require_nodes_final();
     uint delta = C->live_nodes() - live_at_begin;
-    assert(delta <= 2 * required, "Bad node estimate (actual: %d, request: %d)",
+    // Assert is disabled, see JDK-8223911 and related issues.
+    assert(true || delta <= 2 * required, "Bad node estimate (actual: %d, request: %d)",
            delta, required);
   }

Testing: Linux x86_64 fastdebug, regression test from JDK-8223502 (I could have added it, but then
this fix would not be as trivial and would require passing jdk-submit), our larger workloads that
used to break
