testing: use monotonic counts to attribute races in subtests

This implements the approach I described in
https://go-review.git.corp.google.com/c/go/+/494057/1#message-5c9773bded2f89b4058848cb036b860aa6716de3.

Specifically:

- Each level of test atomically records the cumulative number of races
  seen as of the last race-induced test failure.

- When a subtest fails, it logs the race error, and then updates its
  parents' counters so that they will not log the same error.

- We check each test or benchmark for races before it starts running
  each of its subtests or sub-benchmark, before unblocking parallel
  subtests, and after running any cleanup functions.

With this implementation, it should be the case that every test that
is running when a race is detected reports that race, and any race
reported for a subtest is not redundantly reported for its parent.

The regression tests are based on those added in CL 494057 and
CL 501895, with a few additions based on my own review of the code.

Fixes #60083.
