RFR(XS): JDK-8034867 - Object references from expression stack are not visible as roots via jvmti FollowReferences and HeapDump

[serguei.spitsyn at oracle.com]

The fix has been integrated into the jdk9/hs-rt repo.

I've also filed a qe-test/hotspot Enhancement to integrate the test
attached to the bug report into the VM SQE test base:
   https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/INTJDK-7609362

Thanks,
Serguei
