When copying from the old buffer to the new buffer, we don't know the
requested size of the old allocation, but only the size of the
allocation provided by UMA. This value is "alloc". Because the copy
may access bytes in the old allocation's red zone, we must mark the full
allocation valid in the shadow map. Do so using the correct size.

When estimating working set size, measure only allocation batches, not free
batches. Allocation and free patterns can be very different. For example,
ZFS on vm_lowmem event can free to UMA few gigabytes of memory in one call,
but it does not mean it will request the same amount back that fast too, in
fact it won't.
Update working set size on every reclamation call, shrinking caches faster
under pressure. Lack of this caused repeating vm_lowmem events squeezing
more and more memory out of real consumers only to make it stuck in UMA
caches. I saw ZFS drop ARC size in half before previous algorithm after
periodic WSS update decided to reclaim UMA caches.
Introduce voluntary reclamation of UMA caches not used for a long time. For
each zdom track longterm minimal cache size watermark, freeing some unused
items every UMA_TIMEOUT after first 15 minutes without cache misses. Freed
memory can get better use by other consumers. For example, ZFS won't grow
its ARC unless it see free memory, since it does not know it is not really
used. And even if memory is not really needed, periodic free during
inactivity periods should reduce its fragmentation.

The old implementation chose the largest bucket zone such that if the
per-CPU caches are fully populated, the total number of items cached is
no larger than the specified limit. If no such zone existed, UMA would
not do any caching.
We can now use uz_bucket_size_max to set a precise limit on the number
of items in a zone's bucket, so the total size of per-CPU caches can be
bounded more easily. Implement a new policy in uma_zone_set_maxcache():
choose a bucket size such that up to half of the limit can be cached in
per-CPU caches, with the rest going to the full bucket cache. This
fixes a problem with the kstack_cache zone: the limit of 4 * mp_ncpus
items meant that the zone would not do any caching, defeating the whole
purpose of the zone. That's because the smallest bucket size holds up
to 2 items and we may cache up to 3 full buckets per CPU, and
2 * 3 * mp_ncpus > 4 * mp_ncpus.

uz_bucket_size_max is the maximum permitted bucket size. When filling a
new bucket to satisfy uma_zalloc(), the bucket is populated with at most
uz_bucket_size_max items. The maximum number of entries in the bucket
may be larger. When freeing items, however, we will fill per-CPPU
buckets up to their maximum number of entries, potentially exceeding
uz_bucket_size_max. This makes it difficult to precisely limit the
number of items that may be cached in a zone. For example, if one wants
to limit buckets to 1 entry for a particular zone, that's not possible
since the smallest bucket holds up to 2 entries.
Try to solve the problem by using uz_bucket_size_max to limit the number
of entries in a bucket. Note that the ub_entries field is initialized
upon every bucket allocation. Most zones are not affected since they do
not impose any specific limit on the maximum bucket size.
While here, remove the UMA_ZONE_MINBUCKET flag. It was unused and we
now have uma_zone_set_maxcache() to control the zone's cache size more
precisely.

On platforms without a direct map[*], vm_map_insert() may in rare
situations need to allocate a kernel map entry in order to allocate
kernel map entries. This poses a problem similar to the one solved for
vmem boundary tags by vmem_bt_alloc(). In fact the kernel map case is a
bit more complicated since we must allocate entries with the kernel map
locked, whereas vmem can recurse into itself because boundary tags are
allocated up-front.
The solution is to add a custom slab allocator for kmapentzone which
allocates KVA directly from kernel_map, bypassing the kmem_* layer.
This avoids mutual recursion with the vmem btag allocator. Then, when
vm_map_insert() allocates a new kernel map entry, it avoids triggering
allocation of a new slab with M_NOVM until after the insertion is
complete. Instead, vm_map_insert() allocates from the reserve and sets
a flag in kernel_map to trigger re-population of the reserve just before
the map is unlocked. This places an implicit upper bound on the number
of kernel map entries that may be allocated before the kernel map lock
is released, but in general a bound of 1 suffices.
