Michael Anthony Knyszek 08a72c851c runtime: turn off scavenger when there's <1 physical page of work
This change turns off the scavenger if there's less than one physical
page of work to do. If there's less than one phyiscal page of work
today, then the computed time for the work to be done will be zero,
resulting in a floating point division by zero.

This is bad on two accounts. On the one hand it could cause a fault on
some systems. On the other hand, it could cause the pacing computations
done by the scavenger to be nonsense. While this is generally harmless
in the case where there's a very small amount of work to do anyway (the
scavenger might just back off expontentially forever, or do some work
and immediately sleep, because there's not much of it to do), it causes
problems for the deadlock checker. On platforms with a larger physical
page size, such as 64 KiB, we might hit this path in a deadlock
scenario, in which case the deadlock checker will never fire and we'll
just hang.

Specifically, this happens on ppc64 trybot tests, which is where the
issue was discovered.

Fixes #34575.
