> This is another prerequisite for [JDK-8296344](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8296344).
>
> Before this PR, when archiving mirror objects (i.e., instances of `java.lang.Class`):
> - We first allocate a copy of the mirror inside a safepoint.
> - We then reinitialize the contents of the copy to the desired state (so that it can be used by `Klass::restore_unshareable_info()`
>
> This copy-and-modify operation inside the safepoint makes it difficult to implement [JDK-8296344](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8296344). It violates the requirements [1] and [2] as stated in [JDK-8298600](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8298600). Also, the reinitialization code is complicated.
>
> After this PR:
> - During the creation of each regular mirror object, we allocate a "scratch mirror" object, which has the states as expected by `Klass::restore_unshareable_info()`. See `java_lang_Class::create_scratch_mirror()`.
> - When the archive heap is dumped inside a safepoint, we use the scratch mirror, so we can avoid the copy-and-modify operation. See `HeapShared::archive_java_mirrors()`.
>
> Testing: tiers 1-4
