//     We call this choice the "ReferenceBasedDiscovery" policy.
// #1: the reference object may be in any generation (span), but if
//     the referent is in the generation (span) being currently collected
//     then we can discover the reference object, provided
//     the object has not already been discovered by
//     a different concurrently running collector (as may be the
//     case, for instance, if the reference object is in CMS and
//     the referent in DefNewGeneration), and provided the processing
//     of this reference object by the current collector will
//     appear atomic to every other collector in the system.
//     (Thus, for instance, a concurrent collector may not
//     discover references in other generations even if the
//     referent is in its own generation). This policy may,
//     in certain cases, enqueue references somewhat sooner than
//     might Policy #0 above, but at marginally increased cost
//     and complexity in processing these references.
