runtime: use only dedicated mark workers at reasonable GOMAXPROCS

When GOMAXPROCS is not small, fractional workers don't add much to
throughput, but they do add to the latency of individual goroutines.
In this case, it makes sense to just use dedicated workers, even if we
can't exactly hit the 25% CPU goal with dedicated workers.

This implements this logic by computing the number of dedicated mark
workers that will us closest to the 25% target. We only fall back to
fractional workers if that would be more than 30% off of the target
(less than 17.5% or more than 32.5%, which in practice happens for
GOMAXPROCS <= 3 and GOMAXPROCS == 6).

Updates #21698.
