    hammer2 - Refactor dedup, fixes, optimizations
    
    * Refactor the dedup code, reducing tracking complexity.  Also note that
      we cannot really depend on VM page caching for dedup tests.  Document why
      using bread() is better.
    
    * Use a larger dedup heuristic table to improve dedup matching.
    
    * Improve hammer2_io_getquick(), fix a bug where the dedup_delete code
      was improperly using it and could sometimes miss a dio structure due
      to the underlying buffer not being fully cached.
    
    * Cap out at 16KB indirect blocks, instead of 64KB indirect blocks.  This
      significantly reduces meta-data overheads.
    
    * For now remove IO invalidation, it was causing corruption due to bugs.
      This means that deleted meta-data will be flushed.  However, a certain
      amount of meta-data does not get immediately instantiated and file data
      chains are not instantiated unless the buffer cache gets flushed, so
      temporary files are still pretty cheap.
    
    * Try to improve DIO's LRU recycling.
    
    * Fix a brelse() that was supposed to be a bqrelse().  This improves
      meta-data caching which is desirable for dedup.
    
    * Implement the 'always_compress' sysctl which disables the H2 compression
      heuristic that tries to detect uncompressable data.  If set, H2 will always
      try to compress.
