RFR (M): 8235860: Obsolete the UseParallelOldGC option

[Leo Korinth]

Hi!

I believe _name and old_gen_name() in PSOldGen should be removed and the 
virtual name() should return the string literal directly. Change this if 
you want.

With or without using my suggestions, your changes looks good to me.

Thanks for cleaning this!
Leo
