Summary: Re-enable survivors during the initial-mark pause. Afterwards, the concurrent marking threads have to scan them and mark everything reachable from them. The next GC will have to wait for the survivors to be scanned.

Summary: Remove the separate counting phase of concurrent marking by tracking the amount of marked bytes and the cards spanned by marked objects in marking task/worker thread local data structures, which are updated as individual objects are marked.
