Hi All,

Please review this change to guarantee that at least a Full GC is executed between the invocation and return of `System.gc` or `WhiteBox.fullGC`, even if the call is concurrent with an active `GCLocker `. 

The change should also handle the issues reported in JDK-8299276.

Split into 3 commits, one commit for changes to each GC in [G1, Parallel, Serial]. 

Testing: Tier 1-5.

-------------

Commit messages:
 - trailing whitespace
 - Serial Full GC
 - Parallel Full GC
 - G1 Full GC execution when JNICritical is active
