> `PhaseLive::compute` used to do this: `_worklist = new (_arena) Block_List();`. This allocates the `Block_List` to the `_arena`, but the backing array is allocated on the resource area: `Block_List() : Block_Array(Thread::current()->resource_area()), _cnt(0) {}`. This causes at most 5 worklists and at least 4 worklists to be created and not freed until the compilation is finished. This patch allocates the worklist within `PhaseLive::compute`:s local resource mark.

I also added some style changes, to make the code look more like the rest of Hotspot. I didn't convert the whole file though, only areas that I touched.
