testing: only call ReadMemStats if necessary when benchmarking
When running benchmarks with -cpuprofile,
the entire process gets profiled,
and ReadMemStats is surprisingly expensive.
Running the sort benchmarks right now with
-cpuprofile shows almost half of all execution
time in ReadMemStats.
Since ReadMemStats is not required if the benchmark
does not need allocation stats, simply skip it.
This will make cpu profiles nicer to read
and significantly speed up the process of running benchmarks.
It might also make sense to toggle cpu profiling
on/off as we begin/end individual benchmarks,
but that wouldn't get us the time savings of
skipping ReadMemStats, so this CL is useful in itself.
