Hi all,
please review this fix to full gc to properly set `parsable_bottom` for the heap regions marked through so that "during" verification (`-XX:+VerifyDuringGC`) does not access metadata already unlinked but not yet completely purged.
The test case reproduces crashes fairly well without the patch; the new test case is run with debug VMs only purely to save testing time.
Testing: gha, test case
Thanks,
Thomas
