This adds a GCCPUFraction field to MemStats that reports the cumulative fraction of the program's execution time spent in the garbage collector. This is equivalent to the utilization percent shown in the gctrace output and makes this available programmatically. This does make one small effect on the gctrace output: we now report the duration of mark termination up to just before the final start-the-world, rather than up to just after. However, unlike stop-the-world, I don't believe there's any way that start-the-world can block, so it should take negligible time. While there are many statistics one might want to expose via MemStats, this is one of the few that will undoubtedly remain meaningful regardless of future changes to the memory system. The diff for this change is larger than the actual change. Mostly it lifts the code for computing the GC CPU utilization out of the debug.gctrace path. Updates #10323.
