One side effect of PR #364 is that it eagerly collects region managers even when their fields can be reused immediately after their active field counts become zero. This makes the code create many fresh regions, most of which aren't necessary if the code was able to reuse managers with no active fields. This is problematic as the runtime doesn't perform region destruction as frequently as those fresh regions are created, which ends up limiting how far the runtime can run ahead.
To solve this problem, this PR introduces a pool of inactive region managers with some simple LRU eviction policy.
