Reduce and handle EAGAIN errors on AIO label reads
At least FreeBSD has a limit of 256 simultaneous AIO requests per process. Attempt to issue more results in EAGAIN errors. Since we issue 4 requests per disk/partition from 2xCPUs threads, it is quite easy to reach that limit on large systems, that results in random pool import failures. It annoyed me for quite a while on a system with 64 CPUs and 70+ partitioned disks. This patch from one side limits the number of threads to avoid the error, while from another should softly fall back to sync reads in case of error. It takes into account _SC_AIO_MAX as a system-wide AIO limit and _SC_AIO_LISTIO_MAX as a closest value to per-process limit. The last not exactly right, but it is the best I found.
