RFR: 8210753: Make ThreadLocalAllocBuffer::resize() public

[JC Beyler]

Hi Per,

I noticed when working on this code that I always disliked the resize
method naming: really what it is doing is calculating the next size for a
given TLAB to be done when the tlab is full. I don't think we'd
automatically want to rename the resize method but it is only called once
currently so changing its name could be done here easily and any reader
would understand that tlab.resize() does not resize; it merely calculates
the next size.

Were you to consider it, I think calculate_next_size would seem to be more
appropriate (and we could remove the comment in the first line of the
method since now it is redundant with the name of the method).

Anyway, whatever you do decide, it looks good to me (not a reviewer though),
Jc
