Hi,
The JFR leak profiler finds strong reference chains to object samples.
Weirdly enough, it walks the StringTable roots. But these oops are
phantomly reachable. So they should arguably be excluded from the root
snapshot.This incorrect use of StringTable::oops_do is the only use of
StringTable::oops_do, so I'm removing that function.
Bug:

Thanks,
