On NUMA hardware, autonuma may reduce performance by
unmapping memory.
Since we do manual NUMA placement, autonuma will not
help anything.
We ought to disable it by setting the kernel.numa_balancing
sysctl to 0.

Scylla-jmx and collectd can preempt scylla and induce long latencies. Tune
the scheduler to provide lower latencies.
Since when the support processes are not running we normally do not context
switch (one thread per core, remember?), there should be no effect on
throughput.
The tunings are provided in a separate package, which can be uninstalled
if the server is shared with other applications which are negatively
affected by the tuning.
Fixes#1218.
