Hi all,

  can I have reviews for this merge of two methods that have the same purpose: determine whether this pause should be a concurrent start pause. The reason for this merge is that `G1CollectedHeap::determine_start_concurrent_mark_gc` just calls the other, and
  - is the only caller
  - only adds another condition of the same type that `G1Policy::decide_on_conc_mark_initiation` does at the beginning
  - adds some return value checking and return value
which all imho fit into `G1Policy::decide_on_conc_mark_initiation` too.

It also reduces `G1CollectedHeap` a bit. The main reason for me to put this in the new location is basically that that additional condition in  `G1CollectedHeap::determine_start_concurrent_mark_gc` makes all conditions for that decision be located closer together.

If you think otherwise and this is a bad idea, I will close this PR.

Testing: manual gc/g1 runs

Thanks,
  Thomas
