DRAFT: This is very old, and is not intended to be merged directly.

This PR contains a hypothetical change I made for the purpose of killing the ProcessEdgesWork. The point is, the trace_object method is at the heart of a trace, the counterpart of the Trace or TraceLocal type in the old JikesRVM. Each plan should provide a custom trace_object method instead of a custom ProcessEdgesWork implementation.

On the contrary, a ProcessEdgesWork work packet simply encapsulates enqueued slots, and should contain methods that (1) load from the slots, (2) call trace_object and (3) store the forwarded reference back to the slot. It should not implement the trace_object method itself.
