runtime: rationalize triggerRatio

gcController.triggerRatio is the only field in gcController that
persists across cycles. As global mutable state, the places where it
written and read are spread out, making it difficult to see that
updates and downstream calculations are done correctly.

Improve this situation by doing two things:

1) Move triggerRatio to memstats so it lives with the other
trigger-related fields and makes gcController entirely transient
state.

2) Commit the new trigger ratio during mark termination when we
compute other next-cycle controls, including the absolute trigger.
This forces us to explicitly thread the new trigger ratio from
gcController.endCycle to mark termination, so we're not just pulling
it out of global state.
