Fixed instability in some GC tests.

Some GC tests were sporadically failing. The reason was that they used
the setExpireAgeMillis method to define object expiration before
invoking the prune method. Depending on the CPU load during the test
run, the prune method may reach an object (which is considered
non-expired by the test) too late and actually prune it.

To make the test stable we now use the setExpire(Date expire) method and
define a time instant before which objects are considered to be expired.
This way the outcome of the prune method doesn't depend on the CPU load.
