> The only directly heap allocated, constructed object of types that are overaligned because of ZCACHE_ALIGNED is ZCollectedHeap. The other are either in static storage or contained in (and constructed as part of) ZCollectedHeap. So we only need to fix ZCollectedHeap allocation. 
> 
> As the CollectedHeap is only ever created once and is never destroyed, we can simply align the allocation and create an unfreeable pointer.
> 
> This implementation imposes that `ZCacheLineSize` is a power of two, but we already have this requirement elsewhere (e.g. `ZContendedStorage`).
> 
> Testing:
>  * tier 1 through tier 5 Oracle supported platforms
>  * GHA
