RFR: 8253332: ZGC: Make heap views reservation platform independent

ZVirtualMemoryManager::reserve_contiguous_platform tries to reserve three views of a given address range. The posix and
windows versions are more or less duplicates, with calls to platform dependent versions of reserve/unreserve functions.

I'd like to clean this up in preparation of an alternative implementation for heap memory allocation on Windows.

I choose to prefix the OS dependent functions with os_. For consistency, initialize_os should have been renamed as
well, but the plan is to change that in a separate patch that splits that function into two, so I skipped it for now.
