JDK-8255298 - Remove SurvivorAlignmentInBytes functionality
Description
For the SurvivorAlignmentInBytes option if 1 word of padding is needed to achieve the alignment, the padding increased by SurvivorAlignmentInBytes.  Can this case where 1 word of padding is needed skip the alignment to SurvivorAlignmentInBytes to save the extra memory used for the padding?
Comments
We are removing this functionality with JDK-8255298, so this change is obsolete.
