perf: perform a garbage collection before each iteration

Currently, no explicit garbage collection is performed when running
the microbenchmarks in `hg perf`. I think this is wrong because
garbage collection can have a significant impact on execution times.
And, if gc is triggered via the default heuristics, it will
fire effectively randomly during subsequent benchmark iterations
due to variable amount of garbage left over from previous runs.

Running a gc before invoking the measured function will help ensure
state is more consistent across all iterations.

  $ hg init
  $ echo This is file a1 > a
  $ hg add a
  $ hg commit -m "commit #0"
  $ echo This is file b1 > b
  $ hg add b
  $ hg commit -m "commit #1"
  $ hg update 0
  0 files updated, 0 files merged, 1 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  $ echo This is file c1 > c
  $ hg add c
  $ hg commit -m "commit #2"
  created new head
  $ hg merge 1
  1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
  (branch merge, don't forget to commit)
  $ rm b
  $ echo This is file c22 > c

Test hg behaves when committing with a missing file added by a merge

  $ hg commit -m "commit #3"
  abort: cannot commit merge with missing files
