runtime: check channel's elemsize before calling race detector

When c.elemsize==0 we call raceacquire() and racerelease()
as opposed to calling racereleaseacquire()

The reason for this change is that, when elemsize==0, we don't
allocate a full buffer for the channel.  Instead of individual
buffer entries, the race detector uses the c.buf as the only
buffer entry.  This simplification prevents us following the
memory model's happens-before rules implemented in racereleaseacquire().
So, instead of calling racereleaseacquire(), we accumulate
happens-before information in the synchronization object associated
with c.buf.

The functionality in this change is implemented in a new function
called racenotify()

Fixes #42598
