This PR introduces a new interface to retrieve CPU time for various Hotspot components and it currently supports:

Does `vm_thread_cpu_time` include gc-vm-thread time? Looking at how it's printed, "VM Thread" and "Garbage Collection" are two separate lines, suggesting there are no overlapping btw them.
