RFR: 8066771: Refactor VM GC operations caused by allocation failure

[Jon Masamitsu]

Marcus,

Many of the changes seem not to relate directly to the
CR.  For example the change "unsigned int -> uint" are
the only changes is some files.  Though that would be
bearable in a code review, it makes  more work for
sustaining when they go hunting for a change that lead
to a bug.   Please consider integrating those under
a different CR.

Please create a CR to rename the sub-classes of
VM_CollectForAllocation with synopsis "Regularize
name of VM_CollectForAllocation and subclasses".
Assign it to me.

The changes themselves look good.

Pending your decision of separating out the unrelated
changes, consider it reviewed.

Jon
