Little regression crept in with [JDK-8351142](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8351142): on the deflation path, object associated with monitor can be already dead. The event wants to record it, touches the dead object and crashes. The fix is simple: since we cannot infer any useful information from the event, we just skip the event emit.

A new stress test fails within seconds without a fix. It also covers other monitor events, so we have extra coverage there as well.

Additional testing:
 - [x] Linux x86_64 server fastdebug, new stress test now passes
 - [x] Linux x86_64 server fastdebug, `jdk_jfr`
