runtime: always report starting heap size in gctrace 

Currently the gctrace output reports the trigger heap size, rather
than the actual heap size at the beginning of GC. Often these are the
same, or at least very close. However, it's possible for the heap to
already have exceeded this trigger when we first check the trigger and
start GC; in this case, this output is very misleading. We've
encountered this confusion a few times when debugging and this
behavior is difficult to document succinctly.

Change the gctrace output to report the actual heap size when GC
starts, rather than the trigger.
