6716785: implicit null checks not triggering with CompressedOops
Summary: allocate alignment-sized page(s) below java heap so that memory
accesses at heap_base+1page give signal and cause an implicit null check

http://webrev.invokedynamic.info/coleenp/6716785/
Note in this webrev, the change in arguments.cpp to enable
UseCompressedOops by default will be reverted for checking into HS13
(it's still off by default) for 6u6p. Should I enable it in our HS14
source base?
Thanks!
