CRR (M): 7157073: G1: type change size_t -> uint for region counts / indexes

[Igor Veresov]

Looks good to me, except for one pedantic bit: 

In g1CollectedHeap.hpp:
671 memset(_in_cset_fast_test_base, false, 672 (size_t) (_in_cset_fast_test_length * sizeof(bool))); 673 }
In case sizeof(bool) > 1, may be it should be: (size_t)_in_cset_fast_test_length * sizeof(bool) ?
