mythria 6254019238 Changed scavenge GC to collect unmodified references
Added a scavenge GC pass that collects unmodified references instead of
processing object groups.  This mode can be controlled by setting
FLAG_scavenge_remove_unmodified_objects. By default this is turned off.
Also, modified a test case to suit the handle the new GC pass.
