RFR: 8270870: Simplify G1ServiceThread

Please review this simplification of the internal control structure of
G1ServiceThread, particularly around the entry and exit of monitor contexts.

In addition, the run_task logging now includes the delay between the
scheduled time to run and the actual, as that seems like useful information
to have sometimes.

I also changed the monitor rank from nonleaf to leaf.  There was no reason
to use nonleaf, and leaf avoids questions about why nonleaf was used.

Testing:
mach5 tier1-3.  This includes the gtest for G1ServiceThread.

Ran a test program with gc+task logging enabled and checked that the logging
output looked okay.
