RFR: 8372543: Shenandoah: undercalculated the available size when soft max takes effect [v2]

[Rui Li]

> Detailed math and repro see https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8372543. 
> 
> Currently in shenandoah, when deciding whether to have gc, how we calculate available size is:
> 
> 
> available = (Xmx * (100 - ShenandoahEvacReserve) / 100) - used
> soft_tail = Xmx - soft_max
> if (available - soft_tail < ShenandoahMinFreeThreshold * soft_max) // trigger gc 
> 
> 
> The if condition `available - soft_tail` will be reduced to: `-(ShenandoahEvacReserve/100) * Xmx - used + soft_max`, which means when soft max is the same, the larger Xmx is, the less free size the app would have and the more gc it would have, which does not make sense, especially for the case where the app is mostly idle. This caused one of our internal customers experienced frequent gc with minimal workload, when soft max heap size was set way lower than Xmx.
> 
> 
> Suggested fix: when deciding when to trigger gc, use logic similar to below:
> 
> mutator_soft_capacity = soft_max * (100 - ShenandoahEvacReserve) / 100;
> available = mutator_soft_capacity - used;
> if (available < mutator_soft_capacity) // trigger gc
> ```

> This change also improved gc logging:

> 
> [6.831s][info][gc          ] Trigger: Free (52230K) is below minimum threshold (52428K)
> [6.831s][info][gc,free     ] Free: 1587M, Max: 1024K regular, 1539M humongous, Frag: 2% 
> external, 18% internal; Used: 352M, Mutator Free: 1940 Collector Reserve: 103M, Max: 1024K; Used: 0B

> [8.358s][info][gc          ] Trigger: Free (Soft mutator free) (51498K) is below minimum threshold (52428K)
