nofl space: Fix a bug for parallel optimistic evacuation
...
If two tracer threads visit edges to the same object on an evacuation
candidate block, and they first see that the object is unmarked, then
they both try to evacuate it at the same time. Thread A might try and
fail before thread B manages to acquire the forwarding word. B needs to
see that A marked it in place, and to do that it needs to re-load the
mark byte after acquiring the forwarding word. Otherwise perhaps B
could succeed and you would end up with two copies of an object, one of
them garbled!
