7004681: G1: Extend marking verification to Full GCs Summary: Perform a heap verification after the first phase of G1's full GC using objects' mark words to determine liveness. The third parameter of the heap verification routines, which was used in G1 to determine which marking bitmap to use in liveness calculations, has been changed from a boolean to an enum with values defined for using the mark word, and the 'prev' and 'next' bitmaps.

7051430: CMS: ongoing CMS cycle should terminate abruptly to allow prompt JVM termination at exit Summary: It turns out that there is no need to explicitly stop CMS since the JVM is taken down at a terminal safepoint during which CMS threads are (terminally) inactive. This will need to be revised if and when we evolve in the future to a point where we allow JVM reincarnation in the same process, but those changes will be much more sweeping than just terminating CMS threads. The unused ::stop() methods will be removed in a separate CR. Also include in this CR is the fix for a small typo in the spelling of UseGCLogFileRotation in a message in arguments.cpp, brought to our attention by Rainer Jung and reviewed by minqi.
