runtime: make GC runtime stats test run on GCE #8634

In https://code.google.com/p/go/source/detail?r=ec6629ef3dae19 I removed part of a test
that Dmitry liked because it doesn't run on GCE (which only has ~1ms timers apparently).

This bug is about restoring the test somehow. We could make it a -short test (so it's
skipped on builders, but runs on our machiens). Or try the test first and if we get a
0ns pause, then generate a lot of garbage and try for a >= 1 ms GC pause, which is
measurable on Windows (physical hardware) and GCE (any OS).

There are 256 pause times in ms.PauseNs. The code could look at them to see if there is any sub-ms granularity, or anything < 1ms, before rejecting 0.
