runtime: rename m.gcing to m.preemptoff and make it a string

m.gcing has become overloaded to mean "don't preempt this g" in
general.  Once the garbage collector is preemptible, the one thing it
*won't* mean is that we're in the garbage collector.

So, rename gcing to "preemptoff" and make it a string giving a reason
that preemption is disabled.  gcing was never set to anything but 0 or
1, so we don't have to worry about there being a stack of reasons.
