Hi all,

Please review this small change to add a high-level description of how shadow regions are utilized during the compact phase of the parallel GC. There is no special handling of Splitinfo by the shadow regions; the destination computation and the handling of partial_objects are done during the summary phase while the shadow regions optimization only applies to compaction. 

Additionally, some unused variables are cleaned up.
