Austin Clements e870f06c3f runtime: yield time slice to most recently readied G
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.

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:

export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
