RFR [1/2] 8065358: JDK-8065218 Move CMS-specific fields from Space to CompactibleFreeListSpace

[Sangheon Kim]

Hi Mikael,

Looks good.

One question about a function/variable name.
I know the original names are using upper/lower-cases but according to 
hotspot coding style, only lower-case are recommended for 
function/variable names.
As it seems easy to change, how about changing them?

Thanks,
Sangheon
