Prior to this patch, space_maps were preferred solely based on the
amount of free space left in each. Unfortunately, this heuristic didn't
contain any information about the make-up of that free space, which
meant we could keep preferring and loading a highly fragmented space map
that wouldn't actually have enough contiguous space to satisfy the
allocation; then unloading that space_map and repeating the process.

This change modifies the space_map's to store additional information
about the contiguous space in the space_map, so that we can use this
information to make a better decision about which space_map to load.
This requires reallocating all space_map objects to increase their
bonus buffer size sizes enough to fit the new metadata.

The above feature can be enabled via a new feature flag introduced by
this change: com.delphix:spacemap_histogram

In addition to the above, this patch allows the space_map block size to
be increase. Currently the block size is set to be 4K in size, which has
certain implications including the following:

    * 4K sector devices will not see any compression benefit
    * large space_maps require more metadata on-disk
    * large space_maps require more time to load (typically random reads)

Now the space_map block size can adjust as needed up to the maximum size
set via the space_map_max_blksz variable.

A bug was fixed which resulted in potentially leaking an object when
removing a mirrored log device. The previous logic for vdev_remove() did
not deal with removing top-level vdevs that are interior vdevs (i.e.
mirror) correctly. The problem would occur when removing a mirrored log
device, and result in the DTL space map object being leaked; because
top-level vdevs don't have DTL space map objects associated with them.

Porting notes:

A handful of kmem_alloc() calls were converted to kmem_zalloc(). Also,
the KM_PUSHPAGE and TQ_PUSHPAGE flags were used as necessary.
