reserve_and_align() assumptions are invalid on windows

        ReservedSpace::reserve_and_align() assumes that memory reserved by os::reserve_memory() can be released in separate pieces at separate times. This assumption holds on posix-like systems where reserved_memory() calls mmap(), but does not hold on windows.

        The problem is currently latent because reserve_and_align() is not called on windows, but the fix for JDK-6725414 will change that.
