Add support for ZGC on HotSpot #5050

@tkrodriguez

Description

@tkrodriguez

TL;DR

Add support for Z Garbage Collector to the Graal compiler.

Goals

Add required ZGC barriers on HotSpot along with any relevant performance optimizations, allowing the use of ZGC when the Graal is used as a JIT compiler.

Non-Goals

  • Add support for ZGC to GraalVM Native Image
  • Add support for Shenandoah GC (although ZGC support will make it easier to support other GCs in the future)
