RFR (XS): 8078673: Update TEST.groups for recent GC tests

[Dmitry Fazunenko]

Hi Derek,

Sorry for the late comment.

Adding needs_XXXgc groups was a temporary solution for the period when 
jtreg didn't support @requires.
Those groups are not used anymore in our nightly runs and will be 
removed soon.

The more proper way to specify that a test is not applicable for a 
certain collector is adding @requires tag.
Like:
* @requires vm.gc == "G1" | vm.gc == null
or
if a test use all collectors:
  * @requires vm.gc=="null"

Thanks,
Dima
