This test uses an arbitrary timeout and a single GC cycle:

https://cs.opensource.google/go/go/+/master:src/runtime/mfinal_test.go;l=114;drc=58804ea67a28c1d8e37ed548b685bc0c09638886

On a heavily-loaded builder, that could cause it to fail spuriously due to a system scheduler delay.

Interestingly, this has only failed twice in the past ~2 years — both times recently on Windows.

runtime: remove arbitrary GOARCH constraints in finalizer tests
fbf14ae 
These tests were only run on GOARCH=amd64, but the rationale given in
CL 11858043 was GC precision on 32-bit platforms. Today, we have far
more 64-bit platforms than just amd64, and I believe that GC precision
on 32-bit platforms has been substantially improved as well.
The GOARCH restriction seems unnecessary.

Updates #57166.
Updates #5368.
