Michael Pratt e6dacf91ff runtime: use cgroup CPU limit to set GOMAXPROCS
This CL adds two related features enabled by default via compatibility
GODEBUGs containermaxprocs and updatemaxprocs.

On Linux, containermaxprocs makes the Go runtime consider cgroup CPU
bandwidth limits (quota/period) when setting GOMAXPROCS. If the cgroup
limit is lower than the number of logical CPUs available, then the
cgroup limit takes precedence.

On all OSes, updatemaxprocs makes the Go runtime periodically
recalculate the default GOMAXPROCS value and update GOMAXPROCS if it has
changed. If GOMAXPROCS is set manually, this update does not occur. This
is intended primarily to detect changes to cgroup limits, but it applies
on all OSes because the CPU affinity mask can change as well.

The runtime only considers the limit in the leaf cgroup (the one that
actually contains the process), caching the CPU limit file
descriptor(s), which are periodically reread for updates. This is a
small departure from the original proposed design. It will not consider
limits of parent cgroups (which may be lower than the leaf), and it will
not detection cgroup migration after process start.

We can consider changing this in the future, but the simpler approach is
less invasive; less risk to packages that have some awareness of runtime
internals. e.g., if the runtime periodically opens new files during
execution, file descriptor leak detection is difficult to implement in a
stable way.

For #73193.

Files in this directory are data for Go's API checker ("go tool api", in src/cmd/api).

Each file is a list of API features, one per line.

go1.txt (and similarly named files) are frozen once a version has been
shipped. Each file adds new lines but does not remove any.

except.txt lists features that may disappear without breaking true
compatibility.

Starting with go1.19.txt, each API feature line must end in "#nnnnn"
giving the GitHub issue number of the proposal issue that accepted
the new API. This helps with our end-of-cycle audit of new APIs.
The same requirement applies to next/* (described below), which will
become a go1.XX.txt for XX >= 19.

The next/ directory contains the only files intended to be mutated.
Each file in that directory contains a list of features that may be added
to the next release of Go. The files in this directory only affect the
warning output from the go api tool. Each file should be named
nnnnn.txt, after the issue number for the accepted proposal.
(The #nnnnn suffix must also appear at the end of each line in the file;
that will be preserved when next/*.txt is concatenated into go1.XX.txt.)

When you add a file to the api/next directory, you must add at least one file
under doc/next. See doc/README.md for details.
