Unclean backport to improve heap dump performance. The uncleanliness comes from [JDK-8306441](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8306441) that does not exist in JDK 21, and which I don't think we want to backport at the moment. I had to add a few more `ResourceMark`-s near `HeapDumpWriter` to manage the cache allocations.

Additional testing:
 - [x] MacOS AArch64 server release, heap dump performance improved
 - [x]  Linux x86_64 server fastdebug, serviceability/ (contains heap dump tests)
 - [x] Linux x86_64 server fastdebug, runtime/ErrorHandling (contains heap dump on failure tests)
 - [x] Linux x86_64 server fastdebug, gc/epsilon (contains heap dump on failure tests)
 - [x] Linux x86_64 server fastdebug, sun/tools/jhsdb (contains heap dump tests)
