This PR reverts the fix from 
[JDK-8339166](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8339166) because it increases 
the runtime of the test a lot.
Instead a full gc is requested via the whitebox api. This solves the issues 
(see bug description) and it is also clearer and more reliable that allocating 
objects and classes expecting a gc because of the small heap.
The heap setting is also removed since it is not needed anymore.
