>>   - The majority of the other changes are removal of the "archive" region type (see heapRegionType.hpp). For ease of review, such code is isolated in [a852dfb](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/13284/commits/a852dfbbf5ff56e035399f7cc3704f29e76697f6)

>>   - Now the archived java objects can move, along with the "old" regions that contain them. It's no longer possible to test whether a heap object came from CDS. As a result, the `WhiteBox.isShared(Object o)` API has been removed.
>>   - Many tests that uses this API are removed. Most of them were written during early development of CDS archived objects and are no longer relevant.

Thanks @ashu-mehra @matias9927 @tschatzl for the code review.
