It is very hard to make them into separate backports without breaking stuff along the way, so instead I clobbered them together in this PR. They follow the application order from mainline. All patches together touch only the Virtual Thread parts, so the risk for the rest of the code should be minimal.

We want this fix to provide the ground for the rest of backports. Notably, it makes [JDK-8312777](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8312777) backport clean.

I see the approval is granted. Unless there are other comments, I would integrate this PR soon, and it would then land in 21.0.3.
