RFR (S): 8043243: convert SCAN_AND_FORWARD, SCAN_AND_ADJUST_POINTERS, SCAN_AND_COMPACT macros to methods

[Marcus Larsson]

Hi again,

Apparently MSVC has some problems with the inline keyword and friend 
declarations on the specialized function templates, and therefore the 
latest patch wouldn't compile on windows. Resolved this by making the 
friend declarations non-specialized.

Now builds & runs fine on all platforms in JPRT.

Incremental:

Thanks,
Marcus
