Summary: The per-worker _new_refs array is used to hold references that point into the collection set. It is populated during RSet updating and subsequently processed. In the event of an evacuation failure it processed again to recreate the RSets of regions in the collection set. Remove the per-worker _new_refs array by processing the references directly. Use a DirtyCardQueue to hold the cards containing the references so that the RSets of regions in the collection set can be recreated when handling an evacuation failure.

Summary: The first worker thread is delayed when entering the GC because it clears the card count table that is used in identifying hot cards. Replace the card count table with a dynamically sized evicting hash table that includes an epoch based counter.

Summary: For heaps larger than 32Gb, the number of heap regions overflows the data type used to hold the region index in the SparsePRT structure. Changed the region indexes, card indexes, and RSet hash table buckets to ints and added some size overflow guarantees.
