RFR: JDK-8257042: [aix] Disable os.release_one_mapping_multi_commits_vm gtest

On AIX, os::release_memory() cannot release multi-mappings since os::reserve_memory() may return system V shared memory instead of the usual mmapped memory. This makes a new gtest fail.

This is very difficult to fix, therefore lets just disable this test for now.

For details about the underlying issue, see https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8257041.

--

patch disables the test for AIX, and also needs to disable the local reserve helper function to avoid an "unused symbol" warning.
