There should be a unit, and s is the SI unit name, so use that.
The other obvious possibility is ns (nanosecond), but the fact
that durations are measured in nanoseconds is an internal detail.

Currently when we compute the trigger for the next GC, we do it based
on an estimate of the reachable heap size at the start of the GC
cycle, which is itself based on an estimate of the floating garbage.
This was introduced by 4655aadd to fix a bad feedback loop that allowed
the heap to grow to many times the true reachable size.

However, this estimate gets easily confused by rapidly allocating
applications, and, worse it's different than the heap size the trigger
controller uses to compute the trigger itself. This results in the
trigger controller often thinking that GC finished before it started.
Since this would be a pretty great outcome from it's perspective, it
sets the trigger for the next cycle as close to the next goal as
possible (which is limited to 95% of the goal).

Furthermore, the bad feedback loop this estimate originally fixed
seems not to happen any more, suggesting it was fixed more correctly
by some other change in the mean time. Finally, with the change to
allocate black, it shouldn't even be theoretically possible for this
bad feedback loop to occur.

Hence, eliminate the floating garbage estimate and simply consider the
reachable heap to be the marked heap. This harms overall throughput
slightly for allocation-heavy benchmarks, but significantly improves
mutator availability.

Fixes #12204. This brings the average trigger in this benchmark from
0.95 (the cap) to 0.7 and the active GC utilization from ~90% to ~45%.

Updates #14951. This makes the trigger controller much better behaved,
so it pulls the trigger lower if assists are consuming a lot of CPU
like it's supposed to, increasing mutator availability.

Currently we allocate white for most of concurrent marking. This is
based on the classical argument that it produces less floating
garbage, since allocations during GC may not get linked into the heap
and allocating white lets us reclaim these. However, it's not clear
how often this actually happens, especially since our write barrier
shades any pointer as soon as it's installed in the heap regardless of
the color of the slot.

On the other hand, allocating black has several advantages that seem
to significantly outweigh this downside.

1) It naturally bounds the total scan work to the live heap size at
the start of a GC cycle. Allocating white does not, and thus depends
entirely on assists to prevent the heap from growing faster than it
can be scanned.

2) It reduces the total amount of scan work per GC cycle by the size
of newly allocated objects that are linked into the heap graph, since
objects allocated black never need to be scanned.

3) It reduces total write barrier work since more objects will already
be black when they are linked into the heap graph.

This gives a slight overall improvement in benchmarks.

Currently allocating black switches to the system stack (which is
probably a historical accident) and atomically updates the global
bytes marked stat. Since we're about to depend on this much more,
optimize it a bit by putting it back on the regular stack and updating
the per-P bytes marked stat, which gets lazily folded into the global
bytes marked stat.

Currently we count black allocations toward the scannable heap size,
but not toward the scan work we've done so far. This is clearly
inconsistent (we have, in effect, scanned these allocations and since
they're already black, we're not going to scan them again). Worse, it
means we don't count black allocations toward the scannable heap size
as of the *next* GC because this is based on the amount of scan work
we did in this cycle.

Fix this by counting black allocations as scan work. Currently the GC
spends very little time in allocate-black mode, so this probably
hasn't been a problem, but this will become important when we switch
to always allocating black.

Allows passing regexps per subtest to --test.run and --test.bench

Note that the documentation explicitly states that the split regular
expressions match the correpsonding parts (path components) of
the bench/test identifier. This is intended and slightly different
from the i'th RE matching the subtest/subbench at the respective
level.  Picking this semantics allows guaranteeing that a test or
benchmark identifier as printed by go test can be passed verbatim
(possibly quoted) to, respectively, -run or -bench: subtests and
subbenches might have a '/' in their name, causing a misaligment if
their ID is passed to -run or -bench as is.
This semantics has other benefits, but this is the main motivation.

Follow-up to https://golang.org/cl/21755.
This turned out to be a bit more than just a few nits
as originally expected in that CL.

1) The actual mantissa may be shorter than required for the
   given precision (because of trailing 0's): no need to
   allocate space for it (and transmit 0's). This can save
   a lot of space when the precision is high: E.g., for
   prec == 1000, 16 words or 128 bytes are required at the
   most, but if the actual number is short, it may be much
   less (for the test cases present, it's significantly less).

2) The actual mantissa may be longer than the number of
   words required for the given precision: make sure to
   not overflow when encoding in bytes.

3) Add more documentation.

4) Add more tests.

mapaccess{1,2} returns a pointer to the value.  When the key
is not in the map, it returns a pointer to zeroed memory.
Currently, for large map values we have a complicated scheme which
dynamically allocates zeroed memory for this purpose.  It is ugly
code and requires an atomic.Load in a bunch of places we'd rather
not have it.

Switch to a scheme where callsites of mapaccess{1,2} which expect
large return values pass in a pointer to zeroed memory that
mapaccess can return if the key is not found.  This avoids the
atomic.Load on all map accesses with a few extra instructions only
for the large value acccesses, plus a bit of bss space.

There was a time (1.4 & 1.5?) where we did something like this but
all the tricks to make the right size zero value were done by the
linker.  That scheme broke in the presence of dyamic linking.
The scheme in this CL works even when dynamic linking.
