During the discussion of
[JDK-8292981](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8292981) an opinion was
voiced that we should stop using INTPTR_FORMAT when printing pointers.
Some background that could explain why some tend to use INTPTR_FORMAT instead
of PTR_FORMAT:
Both those format specifiers require an integer and the compiler barfs if you
send in a pointer. We therefore have a utility function named p2i, which
converts the pointer to an integer. So, everywhere we have to write print line
like this: `print("my pointer: " PTR_FORMAT, p2i(my_pointer));`. Now, p2i
returns an intptr_t, and it becomes natural for some to consider the type of
the converted value (that we need because of the mentioned workaround), instead
of the original type of the value.
With this enhancement I'd like to clean up the code that I often work in, so
that it uses PTR_FORMAT when printing pointers. I'm leaving the rest of the
code base for others to consider cleaning up.
Cleanups have been done in directories gc/, utilities/, memory/, and oops/.
