thin: compensate metadata size by extra percent

When using --use-policy for automatic extension of thin-pool,
the extension of thin-pool's metadata itself can actually take
some extra space.
Since I'm not aware of exact compensation formula, add just
1% extra to calculated amount and hope it fits.

Wanted target is to always have usable thin-pool that fits
bellow pool_metadata_min_threshold().
