Hi all,
Please review this change to trigger SkippedException instead of RunTimeExceptions when a test is deemed useless because of full-GCs. The test triggers frequent `System.gc()` calls which in some cases may aggressively shrink the heap, and subsequent allocations lead to full-GC. This may affect the usefulness of the test, but it is not a test failure. So we added SkippedException to indicate this situation.
Testing: Local testing with very small heaps.
Tier 1.
