Details

It seems that in many tests, we'll simply skip performing any zealous GC while the background thread is allocating: this seems suboptimal. These triggers cannot do the GC inline, but they can at least schedule a GC at the next safe spot which hopefully might make these more likely while the parse thread is present.

We should probably also skip these if we are in a more-deterministic run mode, but I think that is probably true of all our background triggers, which I don't think we're suppressing at the moment.
