runtime: use timer for GC control revise rather than timeout

Currently, we use a note sleep with a timeout in a loop in func gc to
periodically revise the GC control variables. Replace this with a
fully blocking note sleep and use a periodic timer to trigger the
revise instead. This is a step toward replacing the note sleep in func
gc.

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go directory (the one containing this file). You can omit the variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install-source.html). You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might put the following in your .profile:

export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See https://golang.org/doc/install or doc/install.html for more details.
