Summary: Add local deferred event list to thread to post events outside
CodeCache_lock.
This patch builds on the patch for JDK-8173361. With this patch, I made
the JvmtiDeferredEventQueue an instance class (not AllStatic) and have
one per thread. The CodeBlob event that used to drop the CodeCache_lock
and raced with the sweeper thread, adds the events it wants to post to
its thread local list, and processes it outside the lock. The list is
walked in GC and by the sweeper to keep the nmethods from being unloaded
and zombied, respectively.
Also, the jmethod_id field in nmethod was only used as a boolean so
don't create a jmethod_id until needed for post_compiled_method_unload.
Ran hs tier1-8 on linux-x64-debug and the stress test that crashed in
the original bug report.
