generic/166: speed up on slow disks
generic/166 is takes way too long to run on iscsi disks - over an *hour* on flash based iscsi targets. In comparison, it takes 18s to run on a pmem device. The issue is that it takes 3-4s per file write cycle on slow disks, and it does a thousand write cycles. The problem is taht reflink is so much faster than the write cycle that it's doing many more snapshots on slow disks than fast disks, and this slows it down even more. e.g. the pmem system that takes 18s to run does just under 1000 snapshots - roughly one per file write. 20 minutes into the iscsi based test, it's only done ~300 write cycles but there are almost 10,000 snapshots been taken. IOWs, we're doing 30 snapshots a file write, not ~1. Fix this by rate limiting snapshots to at most 1 per whole file write. This reduces the number of snapshots taken on fast devices by ~50% (runtime on pmem device went from 18s -> 8s) but reduced it to 1000 on slow devices and reduced runtime from 3671s to just 311s.
