Let's get Shenandoah part in before I mess around with other GCs.
Using fake filler array klass seems to have less side-effects,
especially on upstream collectors.
The drawback is that, we still evacuate small object fillers, since fake
filler object is not easy.
I ran hotspot_gc tests (fastdebug and release) without any failures, so
it has no ill-effects on other collectors.
