RFR: 8317453: NMT: Performance benchmarks are needed to measure speed and memory [v6]

[Gerard Ziemski]

> Please review this addition of an internal benchmark, mostly of interest to those working with NMT.
> 
> This benchmark allows us to record a pattern of memory allocation operations (i.e. `malloc`, `realloc` and `free`) as well as the virtual memory allocations (i.e. `VirtualMemoryTracker::add_reserved_region`, etc.) and record those into files.
> 
> Later we can use that recording to _play back_ the pattern with different code or settings to compare the performance (i.e. memory usage as well as time).
> 
> The goal of this benchmark is for anyone working on NMT to be able to measure and prove whether their improvement helps or regresses the performance.
> 
> ### To use it:
> 
> To record pattern of allocations of memory calls:
> 
> `NMTRecordMemoryAllocations=0x7FFFFFFF ./build/macosx-aarch64-server-release/xcode/build/jdk/bin/java -XX:+UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions -XX:NativeMemoryTracking=summary -jar build/macosx-aarch64-server-release/images/jdk/demo/jfc/J2Ddemo/J2Ddemo.jar`
> 
> OR to record pattern of allocations of virtual memory calls:
> 
> `NMTRecordVirtualMemoryAllocations=0x7FFFFFFF ./build/macosx-aarch64-server-release/xcode/build/jdk/bin/java -XX:+UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions -XX:NativeMemoryTracking=summary -jar build/macosx-aarch64-server-release/images/jdk/demo/jfc/J2Ddemo/J2Ddemo.jar`
> 
> This will result in the file:
> -  hs_nmt_pid22770_allocs_record.log (is the chronological record of the the desired operations)
> OR
> - hs_nmt_pid22770_virtual_allocs_record.log (is the chronological record of the desired operations)
> 
> And 2 additional files:
> - hs_nmt_pid22770_info_record.log (is the record of default NMT memory overhead and the NMT state)
> - hs_nmt_pid22770_threads_record.log (is the record of thread names that can be retrieved later when processing)
> 
> 
> then to actually run the benchmark:
> 
> NMTBenchmarkRecordedPID=22770 ./build/macosx-aarch64-server-release/xcode/build/jdk/bin/java -XX:+UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions -XX:NativeMemoryTracking=summary
> 
> ### Usage:
> 
> See the issue for more details and the design document.
