RFR: 8297639: Remove preventive GCs in G1

Hi all,

  can I have reviews for this removal of preventive gcs for G1?

This feature seems to bring more harm than benefit, so after disabling it by default in JDK 20 (reasons described in [JDK-8293861](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/)), this change removes the feature altogether.

This is almost a backout of the original change.

Testing: tier1-5

Thanks,
  Thomas
