[Nestmates] RFR: 8188076: [Nestmates] Rename MemberOfNest attribute to NestHost

[Karen Kinnear]

That was the recommendation of the EG. When I summarized that for Dan Smith he said ok - so I am assuming
that will show up in the next revision.

thanks,
Karen

But then it was suggested that it should be "nest host" and from that (eventually) came the renaming of the attribute. So I have changed all the uses (class names, variable names etc) from "nest top" to "nest host" in the VM code and tests.
