    [heap] Compact map space with --compact-map-space · fff5ed12
    Dominik Inführ authored
    Enable compaction of objects in the map space during a full GC. So far
    pages in the map space were never chosen as evacuation candidates. We
    might be able to improve memory usage a bit by also compacting map
    space. Luckily for us the marking barrier was already emitted when
    updating an object's map word.
    
    This CL adds a new flag FLAG_compact_map_space to easily turn off this
    feature again. For now we keep this flag (and with that map space
    compaction) disabled by default. So GC behavior does not change with
    this CL.
