7000559: G1: assertion failure !outer || (full_collections_started == _full_collections_completed + 1)
Summary: The concurrent marking thread can complete its operation and increment the full GC counter during a Full GC. This causes the nesting of increments to the start and end of Full GCs that we are expecting to be wrong. the fix is for the marking thread to join the suspendible thread set before incrementing the counter so that it's blocked until the Full GC (or any other safepoint) is finished. The change also includes some minor code cleanup (I renamed a parameter).

7002546: regression on SpecJbb2005 on 7b118 comparing to 7b117 on small heaps
Summary: Relaxed assertion checking related to incremental_collection_failed flag to allow for ExplicitGCInvokesConcurrent behaviour where we do not want a failing scavenge to bail to a stop-world collection. Parameterized incremental_collection_will_fail() so we can selectively use, or not use, as appropriate, the statistical prediction at specific use sites. This essentially reverts the scavenge bail-out logic to what it was prior to some recent changes that had inadvertently started using the statistical prediction which can be noisy in the presence of bursty loads. Added some associated verbose non-product debugging messages.
