runtime: don't clear gcscanvalid in casfrom_Gscanstatus
Currently we clear gcscanvalid in both casgstatus and
casfrom_Gscanstatus if the new status is _Grunning. This is very
important to do in casgstatus. However, this is potentially wrong in
casfrom_Gscanstatus because in this case the caller doesn't own gp and
hence the write is racy. Unlike the other _Gscan statuses, during
_Gscanrunning, the G is still running. This does not indicate that
it's transitioning into a running state. The scan simply hasn't
happened yet, so it's neither valid nor invalid.
Conveniently, this also means clearing gcscanvalid is unnecessary in
this case because the G was already in _Grunning, so we can simply
remove this code. What will happen instead is that the G will be
preempted to scan itself, that scan will set gcscanvalid to true, and
then the G will return to _Grunning via casgstatus, clearing
gcscanvalid.
This fix will become necessary shortly when we start keeping track of
the set of G's with dirty stacks, since it will no longer be
idempotent to simply set gcscanvalid to false.
