Hi,
To support concurrent reference processing in ZGC,
instanceRefKlass::try_discover() can no longer use RawAccess to load the
referent field. Instead it should use
HeapAccess<ON_PHANTOM_OOP_REF | AS_NO_KEEPALIVE>
or
HeapAccess<ON_WEAK_OOP_REF | AS_NO_KEEPALIVE>
depending on the reference type. This patch also adjusts
InstanceRefKlass::trace_reference_gc() for the same reason.

Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~pliden/8204474/webrev.0
Testing: This patch has been part of the ZGC repository for quite some
time and gone through various testing, including tier{1,2,3,4,5,6} in mach5.
