runtime: yield time slice to most recently readied G

Browse Source 
Currently, when the runtime ready()s a G, it adds it to the end of the
current P's run queue and continues running. If there are many other
things in the run queue, this can result in a significant delay before
the ready()d G actually runs and can hurt fairness when other Gs in
the run queue are CPU hogs. For example, if there are three Gs sharing
a P, one of which is a CPU hog that never voluntarily gives up the P
and the other two of which are doing small amounts of work and
communicating back and forth on an unbuffered channel, the two
communicating Gs will get very little CPU time.

Change this so that when G1 ready()s G2 and then blocks, the scheduler
immediately hands off the remainder of G1's time slice to G2. In the
above example, the two communicating Gs will now act as a unit and
together get half of the CPU time, while the CPU hog gets the other
half of the CPU time.

This fixes the problem demonstrated by the ping-pong benchmark added
in the previous commit:

benchmark                old ns/op     new ns/op     delta
BenchmarkPingPongHog     684287        825           -99.88%

On the x/benchmarks suite, this change improves the performance of
garbage by ~6% (for GOMAXPROCS=1 and 4), and json by 28% and 36% for
GOMAXPROCS=1 and 4. It has negligible effect on heap size.

This has no effect on the go1 benchmark suite since those benchmarks
are mostly single-threaded.
