srcu: Automatically determine size-transition strategy at boot
This commit adds a srcutree.convert_to_big option of zero that causes SRCU to decide at boot whether to wait for contention (small systems) or immediately expand to large (large systems). A new srcutree.big_cpu_lim (defaulting to 128) defines how many CPUs constitute a large system.
