Improve resilver ETAs
When resilvering the estimated time remaining is calculated using
the average issue rate over the current pass.  Where the current
pass starts when a scan was started, or restarted, if the pool
was exported/imported.

For dRAID pools in particular this can result in wildly optimistic
estimates since the issue rate will be very high while scanning
when non-degraded regions of the pool are scanned.  Once repair
I/O starts being issued performance drops to a realistic number
but the estimated performance is still significantly skewed.

To address this we redefine a pass such that it starts after a
scanning phase completes so the issue rate is more reflective of
recent performance.  Additionally, the zfs_scan_report_txgs
module option can be set to reset the pass statistics more often.
