A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Sweeper was removed recently, in JDK-8290025.
Now, the GC is responsible to free memory in code cache (see CodeCache::gc_on_allocation).

There are corner cases where the GC may not be scheduled anymore because the `_unloading_threshold_gc_requested` is not reset correctly by the GC

I did observe this situation after migrating JVM from Java 17 to 21.
I can reproduce this issue with G1GC and ParallelGC (less likely to happen).

The problem is that `CodeCache::gc_on_allocation` is supposed to run the GC (or schedule it), which is done after setting `_unloading_threshold_gc_requested` to `true`, but the GC may not be run/scheduled in some situation (for instance, if GC is already running). As a result, the flag will remain to `false` and `CodeCache` will not be able to run/schedule the GC anymore.

This issue is more likely to happen if:
- there is pressure on code cache (not large enough / big application with a lot of activity)
- the heap is large and full GC does not happen or very rarely

REGRESSION : Last worked in version 17.0.14

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Run the following java program attached (see Test Case Code) with the following JVM flags:

```
-Xlog:gc*=info,codecache=info -Xmx512m -XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=2496k -XX:StartAggressiveSweepingAt=15
```

Then attach jconsole and monitor code cache.
The purpose of jconsole is not only to monitor code cache, it is also responsible for generating activity in the code cache.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Even if the reserved memory is low for the code cache, the JVM should be able to survive by clearing it periodically without being forced to disable the compiler
ACTUAL -
Everything works fine at the beginning, GC will be triggered to clean code cache, but at some point GC will not be scheduled anymore and the cache will fill up to full.

As the heap is high and the program does not allocate anything, the regular full GC will not happen leaving the application in a unstable situation
