[PATCH 2/4] large-fs: improve space diversification for ext4

[Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@openvz.org>]

Currently we allocated several giant files one by one until limit,
so empty space is located as one chunk which limit code-path coverage.
This patch consume all space with NUM_SPACE_FILES files (by default 1024)
each has same size, and when truncate each one by required delta.
As result we have $NUM_SPACE_FILES chunks of free blocks distributed
across whole filesystem.
This should help us to avoid regressions similar to e7c9e3e99adf6c49
