RFR 8145628: hotspot metadata classes shouldn't use HeapWordSize or heap related macros like align_object_size

Hi Coleen,
Can you do some testing with ObjectAlignmentInBytes set to something
other than 8?
Someone from GC team should apply your patch, grep for
align_object_size(), and confirm that the ones you didn't change are
correct. I gave a quick look and they look right to me, but I wasn't
always certain if object alignment was appropriate in all cases.
I see some remaining HeapWordSize references that are suspect, like in
Array.java and bytecodeTracer.cpp. I didn't go through all of them since
there are about 428. Do they need closer inspection?
align_metadata_offset() is not used. It can be removed.
Shouldn't align_metadata_size() align to 64-bit like
align_object_size() did, and not align to word size? Isn't that what we
agreed to? Have you tested CDS? David had concerns about the
InstanceKlass::size() not returning the same aligned size as
Metachunk::object_alignment().
instanceKlass.hpp: Need to fix the following comment:
97 // sizeof(OopMapBlock) in HeapWords.
thanks,
Chris
