runtime: flush mcaches lazily
Currently, all mcaches are flushed during STW mark termination as a
root marking job. This is currently necessary because all spans must
be out of these caches before sweeping begins to avoid races with
allocation and to ensure the spans are in the state expected by
sweeping. We do it as a root marking job because mcache flushing is
somewhat expensive and O(GOMAXPROCS) and this parallelizes the work
across the Ps. However, it's also the last remaining root marking job
performed during mark termination.
This CL moves mcache flushing out of mark termination and performs it
lazily. We keep track of the last sweepgen at which each mcache was
flushed and as each P is woken from STW, it observes that its mcache
is out-of-date and flushes it.
The introduces a complication for spans cached in stale mcaches. These
may now be observed by background or proportional sweeping or when
attempting to add a finalizer, but aren't in a stable state. For
example, they are likely to be on the wrong mcentral list. To fix
this, this CL extends the sweepgen protocol to also capture whether a
span is cached and, if so, whether or not its cache is stale. This
protocol blocks asynchronous sweeping from touching cached spans and
makes it the responsibility of mcache flushing to sweep the flushed
spans.
This eliminates the last mark termination root marking job, which
means we can now eliminate that entire infrastructure.
Updates #26903. This implements lazy mcache flushing.
