RFR: 8326106: Write and clear stack trace table outside of safepoint

Greetings,
When the chunk rotates, serializing the stack trace table happens in two passes:
1. The pre-safepoint writes as much as possible but does not delete nodes.
2. The safepoint writes new entries incrementally in addition to deleting nodes and resetting buckets.
Since a global lock protects the stack trace table, hoisting the deletes and clearing the table outside safepoints makes sense. Doing so will minimize the stack trace table work needed during the safepoint. The tradeoff is that an identical stack trace can be written twice. However, this is low risk because the pre-safepoint and the safepoint operations happen back to back (i.e. there is only a tiny window for inserting a new stack trace).
Testing: jdk_jfr, stress testing
Thanks
Markus
