Per the comment at top, this test is about whether the GC runs during
init, but it was testing more than that, and testing how much the GC
collected in a certain amount of time.
Instead, loosen this test to just see whether it ran at all and not
how well it did.
Fixes#9848

run GC in its own background goroutine making the
caller runnable if resources are available. This is
critical in single goroutine applications.
Allow goroutines that allocate a lot to help out
the GC and in doing so throttle their own allocation.
Adjust test so that it only detects that a GC is run
during init calls and not whether the GC is memory
efficient. Memory efficiency work will happen later
in 1.5.

Previously merely printing an error would cause the golden
file comparison (in 'bash run') to fail, but that is no longer
the case with the new run.go driver.

Unexports runtime.MemStats and rename MemStatsType to MemStats.
The new accessor requires passing a pointer to a user-allocated
MemStats structure.
