RFR: 8368261: Serial: Use more precise nmethod scope during Full GC marking

Small patch of extracting out the nmethod-marking-scope logic in Serial full-gc. The new `NMethodMarkingScope` is placed in `nmethod.hpp` like its counterpart `ThreadsClaimTokenScope`.

The new `struct` is almost identical to the existing `MarkScope`, so there is a planned followup PR that will address all other users of `StrongRootsScope` to use the recently introduced `ThreadsClaimTokenScope` and the new `NMethodMarkingScope` introduced in this PR, which would make it less abtract than the name `StrongRootsScope`.

Test: tier1-3
