runtime: simplify TestSelectStackAdjust

Currently this test attempts to trigger a concurrent GC in a very
indirect way, but the way it does so is extremely error-prone. This test
is virtually always prone to flaking based on test order. For example if
the test that executed immediately before this one made a big heap but
didn't clean it up, then this test could easily fail to trigger a GC.
I was able to prove this with a small reproducer.

This roundabout way of triggering a GC is also way overkill for this
test. It just wants to get goroutines in a select and shrink their
stacks. Every GC will schedule a stack for shrinking if it can.

Replace all the complicated machinery with a single runtime.GC call.
I've confirmed that the test consistently triggers a stack shrink,
noting that both shrinkstack's copystack call is made and that
syncadjustsudogs (the relevant function that's being indirectly tested)
are both called.

Fixes #44610.
