> In the weak-LRB we currently return referents when it is 'marked', that is when it's either reachable strongly or through a finalizable object. This means a finalizable object can be resurrected by Reference.get(), which is wrong. Only truly strongly reachable objects should be returned by Reference.get() during weak-reference-processing.

> I had to reconsider the way we call into runtime-LRBs from generated code for these reasons:
> - We need to distinguish phantom, weak and strong reference strength, and native vs in-heap access. Those are two orthogonal dimensions
> - We can have strong and phantom native referents, and strong and weak in-heap referents
> - Native referents are never compressed
>
> Note that this depends on PR#1140.

> Testing:

> - [x] tier1 +UseShenandoahGC +ShenandoahVerify
> - [x] tier2 +UseShenandoahGC +ShenandoahVerify
