RFR: 8337269: G1ConfidencePercent interpreted inconsistently [v3]

[Thomas Schatzl]

> Hi all,
> 
>   please review this change that removes the inconsistency in interpretation of G1ConfidencePercent; higher confidence means that G1 should use less safety margin (i.e. part of the variance).
> 
> Other than that it does not change the uses for it.
> 
> Testing: gha
> 
> Thanks,
>   Thomas
