Currently, the concurrent sweep follows a 1:1 rule: when allocation
needs a span, it sweeps a span (likewise, when a large allocation
needs N pages, it sweeps until it frees N pages). This rule worked
well for the STW collector (especially when GOGC==100) because it did
no more sweeping than necessary to keep the heap from growing, would
generally finish sweeping just before GC, and ensured good temporal
locality between sweeping a page and allocating from it.
It doesn't work well with concurrent GC. Since concurrent GC requires
starting GC earlier (sometimes much earlier), the sweep often won't be
done when GC starts. Unfortunately, the first thing GC has to do is
finish the sweep. In the mean time, the mutator can continue
allocating, pushing the heap size even closer to the goal size. This
worked okay with the 7/8ths trigger, but it gets into a vicious cycle
with the GC trigger controller: if the mutator is allocating quickly
and driving the trigger lower, more and more sweep work will be left
to GC; this both causes GC to take longer (allowing the mutator to
allocate more during GC) and delays the start of the concurrent mark
phase, which throws off the GC controller's statistics and generally
causes it to push the trigger even lower.
As an example of a particularly bad case, the garbage benchmark with
GOMAXPROCS=4 and -benchmem 512 (MB) spends the first 0.4-0.8 seconds
of each GC cycle sweeping, during which the heap grows by between
109MB and 252MB.
To fix this, this change replaces the 1:1 sweep rule with a
proportional sweep rule. At the end of GC, GC knows exactly how much
heap allocation will occur before the next concurrent GC as well as
how many span pages must be swept. This change computes this "sweep
ratio" and when the mallocgc asks for a span, the mcentral sweeps
enough spans to bring the swept span count into ratio with the
allocated byte count.
On the benchmark from above, this entirely eliminates sweeping at the
beginning of GC, which reduces the time between startGC readying the
GC goroutine and GC stopping the world for sweep termination to ~100µs
during which the heap grows at most 134KB.

Currently, concurrent GC triggers at a fixed 7/8*GOGC heap growth. For
mutators that allocate slowly, this means GC will trigger too early
and run too often, wasting CPU time on GC. For mutators that allocate
quickly, this means GC will trigger too late, causing the program to
exceed the GOGC heap growth goal and/or to exceed CPU goals because of
a high mutator assist ratio.
This change adds a feedback control loop to dynamically adjust the GC
trigger from cycle to cycle. By monitoring the heap growth and GC CPU
utilization from cycle to cycle, this adjusts the Go garbage collector
to target the GOGC heap growth goal and the 25% CPU utilization goal.

Currently, the concurrent mark phase is performed by the main GC
goroutine. Prior to the previous commit enabling preemption, this
caused marking to always consume 1/GOMAXPROCS of the available CPU
time. If GOMAXPROCS=1, this meant background GC would consume 100% of
the CPU (effectively a STW). If GOMAXPROCS>4, background GC would use
less than the goal of 25%. If GOMAXPROCS=4, background GC would use
the goal 25%, but if the mutator wasn't using the remaining 75%,
background marking wouldn't take advantage of the idle time. Enabling
preemption in the previous commit made GC miss CPU targets in
completely different ways, but set us up to bring everything back in
line.
This change replaces the fixed GC goroutine with per-P background mark
goroutines. Once started, these goroutines don't go in the standard
run queues; instead, they are scheduled specially such that the time
spent in mutator assists and the background mark goroutines totals 25%
of the CPU time available to the program. Furthermore, this lets
background marking take advantage of idle Ps, which significantly
boosts GC performance for applications that under-utilize the CPU.
This requires also changing how time is reported for gctrace, so this
change splits the concurrent mark CPU time into assist/background/idle
scanning.
This also requires increasing the size of the StackRecord slice used
in a GoroutineProfile test.

Currently, the entire GC process runs with g.m.preemptoff set. In the
concurrent phases, the parts that actually need preemption disabled
are run on a system stack and there's no overall need to stay on the
same M or P during the concurrent phases. Hence, move the setting of
g.m.preemptoff to when we start mark termination, at which point we
really do need preemption disabled.
This dramatically changes the scheduling behavior of the concurrent
mark phase. Currently, since this is non-preemptible, concurrent mark
gets one dedicated P (so 1/GOMAXPROCS utilization). With this change,
the GC goroutine is scheduled like any other goroutine during
concurrent mark, so it gets 1/<runnable goroutines> utilization.
You might think it's not even necessary to set g.m.preemptoff at that
point since the world is stopped, but stackalloc/stackfree use this as
a signal that the per-P pools are not safe to access without
synchronization.

Currently, mutator allocation periodically assists the garbage
collector by performing a small, fixed amount of scanning work.
However, to control heap growth, mutators need to perform scanning
work *proportional* to their allocation rate.
This change implements proportional mutator assists. This uses the
scan work estimate computed by the garbage collector at the beginning
of each cycle to compute how much scan work must be performed per
allocation byte to complete the estimated scan work by the time the
heap reaches the goal size. When allocation triggers an assist, it
uses this ratio and the amount allocated since the last assist to
compute the assist work, then attempts to steal as much of this work
as possible from the background collector's credit, and then performs
any remaining scan work itself.

Modify gcDrainN to perform a fixed amount of scan work instead. For
now, gchelpwork still performs a fairly arbitrary amount of scan work,
but at least this is much more closely related to how long the work
will take. Shortly, we'll use this to precisely control the scan work
performed by mutator assists during allocation to achieve the heap

This tracks scan work done by background GC in a global pool. Mutator
assists will draw on this credit to avoid doing work when background
GC is staying ahead.
Unlike the other GC controller tracking variables, this will be both
written and read throughout the cycle. Hence, we can't arbitrarily
delay updates like we can for scan work and bytes marked. However, we
still want to minimize contention, so this global credit pool is
allowed some error from the "true" amount of credit. Background GC
accumulates credit locally up to a limit and only then flushes to the
global pool. Similarly, mutator assists will draw from the credit pool
in batches.

The new limit is to 8 move instructions.
The old limit was either 3 or 4 small things but in the details it was

it handled a struct containing two ints, but not a struct containing a struct
containing two ints; it handled slices and interfaces and a struct containing
a slice but not a struct containing an interface; and so on.
The new code runs at about the same speed as the old code if limited to 4 moves,
but that's much more restrictive when the pieces are strings or interfaces.

write barrier is missed at just the right moment.
2) Now a write barrier never happens for the field, avoiding the
