> The object model / heap implementation/garbage collector for  bootJVM need redesign.  Major points are:
> 1) per-object metadata to be 
>   - reduced to <= 3 words
>   - re-cast as an object header
> 2) Object references redesigned as pointers rather than hashes or table indexes
> 3) Garbage collection metadata integrated with the object header
>  
> 4) GC maps for stacks produced at GC-safe points
> Example code is attached.
