In a heavy write scenario, we can end up with a large number of pinned
bytes.  This can translate into (very) premature ENOSPC because pinned
bytes must be accounted for when allowing a reservation but aren't
accounted for when deciding whether to create a new chunk.

This patch adds the accounting to should_alloc_chunk so that we can
create the chunk.

Ignore this patch.  It certainly allocates chunks more aggressively, but
it means we end up with a ton of metadata chunks even when we don't have
much metadata.


Josef and I pushed this needle back and forth a bunch of times in the
early days.  I still think we can allocate a few more chunks than we do
now...

I agree.  This patch was to fix an issue that we are seeing during
installation.  It'd stop with ENOSPC with >50GB completely unallocated.
The patch passed the test cases that were failing before but now it's
failing differently.  I was worried this pattern might be the end result:

Data,single: Size:4.00GiB, Used:3.32GiB
   /dev/vde        4.00GiB

Metadata,DUP: Size:20.00GiB, Used:204.12MiB
   /dev/vde       40.00GiB

System,DUP: Size:8.00MiB, Used:16.00KiB
   /dev/vde       16.00MiB

This is on a fresh file system with just "cp /usr /mnt" executed.

I'm looking into it a bit more now.

Does this failure still happen with Omar's ENOSPC fix (commit: 70e7af244f24c94604ef6eca32ad297632018583)
