> The fix updates JVMTI FollowReferences implementation to report references from virtual threads:
> - unmounted vthreads are detected, their stack references for JVMTI_HEAP_REFERENCE_STACK_LOCAL/JVMTI_HEAP_REFERENCE_JNI_LOCAL;
> - stacks of mounted vthreads are splitted into 2 parts (virtual thread stack and carrier thread stack), references are reported with correct thread id/class tag/object tags/frame depth;
> - common code to handle stack frames are moved into separate class;
> 
> Threads are reported as:
> - platform threads: JVMTI_HEAP_REFERENCE_THREAD (as before);
> - mounted vthreads (synthetic references, consider them as heap roots because carrier threads are roots): JVMTI_HEAP_REFERENCE_OTHER;
> - unmounted vthreads: not reported as heap roots.
