Joe Talerico e6b658bd00 Update os_workers to have other options
Adding additional options for os_workers.rb:

        os_workers_small
        os_workers_large

os_workers will provide response times close to what
$::processorcount had (with two sockets machines).

os_workers_small will be the existing calculation.

os_workers_large can be used where services are distributed across
multiple machines and high worker count is not a concern.

Closes-bug: #1650424

#
# We've found that using $::processorcount for workers/threads can lead to
# unexpected memory or process counts for people deploying on baremetal or
# if they have large number of cpus. This fact allows us to tweak the formula
# used to determine number of workers in a single place but use it across all
# modules.
#
# The value for os_workers is max between '(<# processors> / 4)' and '2' with
# a cap of 8.
#
# This fact can be overloaded by an external fact from /etc/factor/facts.d if
# a user would like to provide their own default value.

# The value above for os_workers performs 3x worse in many cases compared to
# the prevuous default of $::processorcount.
#
# Based on performance data [1], the following calculation is within 1-2%.
