<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Nonmoving: Allow aging and refactor static objects logic

This commit does two things:

 * Allow aging of objects during the preparatory minor GC
 * Refactor handling of static objects to avoid the use of a hashtable

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">NonMoving: Eliminate integer division in nonmovingBlockCount

Perf showed that the this single div was capturing up to 10% of samples
in nonmovingMark. However, the overwhelming majority of cases is looking
at small block sizes. These cases we can easily compute explicitly,
allowing the compiler to turn the division into a significantly more
efficient division-by-constant.

While the increase in source code looks scary, this all optimises down
to very nice looking assembler. At this point the only remaining
hotspots in nonmovingBlockCount are due to memory access.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">NonMoving: Don't do major GC if one is already running

Previously we would perform a preparatory moving collection, resulting
in many things being added to the mark queue. When we finished with this
we would realize in nonmovingCollect that there was already a collection
running, in which case we would simply not run the nonmoving collector.

However, it was very easy to end up in a "treadmilling" situation: all
subsequent GC following the first failed major GC would be scheduled as
major GCs. Consequently we would continuously feed the concurrent
collector with more mark queue entries and it would never finish.

This patch aborts the major collection far earlier, meaning that we
avoid adding nonmoving objects to the mark queue and allowing the
concurrent collector to finish.
