Zach Brown 9ad86d4d29 scoutfs: commit trans before premature enospc ...

File data allocations come from radix allocators which are populated by
the server before each client transation.  It's possible to fully
consume the data allocator within one transaction if the number of dirty
metadata blocks is kept low.  This could result in premature ENOSPC.

This was happening to the archive-light-cycle test.  If the transactions
performed by previous tests lined up just right then the creation of the
initial test files could see ENOSPC and cause all sorts of nonsense in
the rest of the test, culminating in cmp commands stuck in offline
waits.

This introduces high and low data allocator water marks for
transactions.  The server tries to fill data allocators for each
transaction to the high water mark and the client forces the commit of a
transaction if its data allocator falls below the low water mark.

The archive-light-cycle test now passes easily and we see the
trans_commit_data_alloc_low counter increasing during the test.
