Summary Rationalize the interaction between GC and the SymbolTable lock

Currently we have everything we need to ensure that we don't do GC things while holding the SymbolTable lock, and yet we still use a GCSafeConcurrentJITLocker because of the few things that slipped through, like exception throwing. Also, we notifyWrite() on watchpoint sets while holding the SymbolTable lock, which seems super dangerous. We should fix this.
