> In Leyden performance investigations, we have figured that `ArchiveRelocationMode=0` is saving 5..7 ms on HelloWorld startup. Mainline defaults to `ARM=1`, _losing_ as much. `ARM=0` was switched to `ARM=1` with [JDK-8294323](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/commit/be70bc1c58eaec876aa1ab36eacba90b901ac9b8), which was delivered to JDK 17+ in in Apr 2023.

> Profiling shows we spend time mem-faulting the memory loading the RO/RW regions, about 15 MB total. 15 MB in 5ms amounts to >4GB/sec, close to the single-threaded limits. I suspect the impact is larger if we relocate larger Metaspace, e.g. after dumping a CDS archive from a large application. There is little we can do to make the actual relocation part faster: the overwhelming majority of samples is on kernel side.

> This PR implements the infrastructure for fast archive workers, and leverages it to do two things:
> 1. Parallel pretouch of mmap-ed regions. This causes the faults we would otherwise process in a single thread to be processed in multiple threads. The key thing is to eat the page faults in multiple threads; pretouching with a single thread would not help. This improvement gives the biggest bang in both `ArchiveRelocationMode`-s.
> 2. Parallel core regions relocation. The RW/RO regions this code traverses is large, and we can squeeze more performance by parallelizing it. Without pretouch from (1), this step serves as one for RW/RO regions.

> We can, in principle, only do (1), and have only a few hundred microseconds of unrealized gain without (2). I think we can do parallelism for heap region relocations as well, but so far I see it is a very small fraction of time spent in loading, so I left it for future work. I think (1) covers a lot of ground for heap region relocations already.
