Austin Clements 29be3f1999 runtime: generalize GC trigger
Currently the GC triggering condition is an awkward combination of the
gcMode (whether or not it's gcBackgroundMode) and a boolean
"forceTrigger" flag.

Replace this with a new gcTrigger type that represents the range of
transition predicates we need. This has several advantages:

1. We can remove the awkward logic that affects the trigger behavior
   based on the gcMode. Now gcMode purely controls whether to run a
   STW GC or not and the gcTrigger controls whether this is a forced
   GC that cannot be consolidated with other GC cycles.

2. We can lift the time-based triggering logic in sysmon to just
   another type of GC trigger and move the logic to the trigger test.

3. This sets us up to have a cycle count-based trigger, which we'll
   use to make runtime.GC trigger concurrent GC with the desired
   consolidation properties.

For #18216.
