Please review this change to the implementation of CDS support to use
a new collector-based protocol for handling archived Java mirrors.
Rather than using the IN_ARCHIVE_ROOT feature of the Access API, we
instead use a new protocol provided by the collected heap (only
G1CollectedHeap for now, since only G1 supports this feature).  This
allows IN_ARCHIVE_ROOT to be removed from the Access API.

This changeset is based on work by Stefan Karlsson.
