Metaspace leak with instrumentation.retransform

Yes, that's the space for the old bytecode sitting around waiting to be
re-used:

` Deallocated from chunks in use:    127.36 MB (>99%) (11785 blocks) `

It would be nice if you could open a JBS issue and attach the program and a
log produced with "-Xlog:metaspace=trace"; you may have to zip the thing if
it gets too large.
