In GC verification code, we are not always safe to touch the klass directly. This becomes a problem in Lilliput, where loading klass from the from-space is erroneous. Lilliput would replace `obj->klass()` with `obj->forward_safe_klass()` to make it right in GC code. But accessors like `java_lang_Class` would not be fixed. So we are better avoiding using these `java_lang_Class` accessors in GC verification code, and use the loaded `klass` directly.
Additional tests:
- [ ] Linux x86_64 server fastdebug, `hotspot_gc_shenandoah`
- [ ] Linux x86_64 server fastdebug, `all` with `-XX:+UseShenandoahGC`
