> Allowing external tools to access e.g. `oopDesc::_metadata._klass` with `+UCOH` is error-prone. We have seen async-profiler poking into this field to resolve classes: https://github.com/async-profiler/async-profiler/blob/117594bb4d1ce61b073c8a9cea438b33f3f09c81/src/vmStructs.cpp#L158-L161
> 
> This hides the fields from vmStructs with +UCOH. This is the least intrusive way of achieving this I can come up with.
> 
> Additional testing:
>  - [x] Eyeballing instrumented async-profiler initialization path
>  - [x] Linux x86_64 fastdebug `serviceability/sa`, default
>  - [x] Linux x86_64 fastdebug `serviceability/sa`, `+UCOH`
>  - [ ] Linux x86_64 fastdebug `tier1 tier2`, default
>  - [ ] Linux x86_64 fastdebug `tier1 tier2`, `+UCOH`
