Anita Zhang cb5ce676d9 oomd: check mem free and swap free before doing a swap-based kill

Anita Zhang 685b0985f0 oomd: threshold swap kill candidates to usages of more than 5%
In some instances, particularly with swap on zram, swap used will be high
while there is still a lot of memory available. FB OOMD handles this by
thresholding kills to X% of total swap usage. Let's do the same thing here.

Anecdotally with these thresholds and my laptop which is exclusively swap
on zram I can sit at 0K / 4G swap free with most of memory free and
systemd-oomd doesn't kill anything.

Partially addresses aggressive kill behavior from

Lennart Poettering d06e7fb532 oomd: increase accuracy of SwapUsedLimit= to permyriads too
oomd.conf has two parameters with fractionals: SwapUsedLimit= and
DefaultMemoryPressureLimit=, but one accepts permyriads, the other only
percentages, for no apparent reason. One carries the "Percent" in the
name, the other doesn't.

Let's clean this up: always accept permyriads, and drop the suffix,
given that it is misleading.

I figure we should internally try to focus on scaling everything
relative to UINT32_MAX, and if that isn't in the cards at least 10000,
but never permille nor percent unless there's a really really good
reason for it (e.g. interface defined by someone else).

Anita Zhang 0a9f93443b oom: rework *MemoryPressureLimit= properties to have 1/10000 precision
Requested in
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/15206#discussion_r505506657,
preserve the full granularity for memory pressure limits (permyriad)
instead of capping out at percent.
