Only flush a subset of extents during flushing, and drop the lock while doing
so.

* Small extent cache.
*
* This includes some utilities to cache small extents. We have a per-pszind
* bin with its own lock and edata heap (including only extents of that size).
* We don't try to do any coalescing of extents (since it would require
* cross-bin locks). As a result, we need to be careful about fragmentation.
* As a gesture in that direction, we limit the size of caches, apply first-fit
* within the bins, and, when flushing a bin, flush all of its extents rather
* than just those up to some threshold. When we allocate again, we'll get a
* chance to move to better ones.
* bin with its own list of extents of that size. We don't try to do any
* coalescing of extents (since it would in general require cross-shard locks or
* knowledge of the underlying PAI implementation).
