RFR: 8267311: vmTestbase/gc/gctests/StringInternGC/StringInternGC.java eventually OOMEs [v2]

[Jie Fu]

> Hi all,
> 
> vmTestbase/gc/gctests/StringInternGC/StringInternGC.java fails with release VM on our many-core machines due to `-XX:MaxRAMPercentage=0`.
> This is because `-XX:MaxRAMPercentage=0` will be 0 if JTREG_JOBS > 25 [1].
> 
> Reproduce:
>  - make test TEST="vmTestbase/gc/gctests/StringInternGC/StringInternGC.java" JTREG="JOBS=26" CONF=server-release
> 
> `-Xmx1g` is added to make it more robust.
> Note: we still see failure with `-Xmx512m`.
> 
> Thanks.
> Best regards,
> Jie
