> This change introduces an experimental runtime flag -XX:[+/-]UseCompactObjectHeaders which can be used to disable Lilliput. The flag guards all the relevant places that directly affect the object layout and the accesses to Klass* etc. The change also restores the previous behaviour when -UseCompactObjectHeaders is selected.

> One special difficulty is that CDS archives that are generated with compact object headers cannot currently be read with old-style headers, and vice versa. I work around this by disabling CDS when UseCompactObjectHeaders is set to non-default. This makes a few tests fail, but should otherwise be harmless. (In theory, we could implement parsing archives and loading objects with the correct header layout, but ... life's too short ;-) )
