Summary: All of the hashing based Map implementations: HashMap, Hashtable, LinkedHashMap, WeakHashMap and ConcurrentHashMap are modified to use an enhanced hashing algorithm for string keys when the capacity of the hash table has ever grown beyond 512 entries. The enhanced hashing implementation uses the murmur3 hashing algorithm along with random hash seeds and index masks. These enhancements mitigate cases where colliding String hash values could result in a performance bottleneck.

4268317: (ref) Reference.isEnqueued() can return true when instance not enqueued
Summary: The reference handler now declares, and assumes, that the discovered field, rather than the next field, is (to be) used to link the entries in the pending list, thus allowing a reference object to be safely enqueued even while it is in the pending state. Also added slightly modified regression tests from the two bug reports.
