Since latency Qos detection doesn't account for IOs which
are in-flight for longer than a period, we detect them by
comparing vdone against period start. If lagging behind
IOs from past periods, don't increase vrate, but don't let
cmds which take a very long time pin lagging for too long.

The current code compares vdone against (vnow - period_vtime),
which is thought to be the period start. But the earliest
period start should be (vnow - period_vtime - margins.target).

And we will slide forward vtime and vdone on each period timer,
so we can't depend on vtime to check if the iocg has pinned
lagging for longer than MAX_LAGGING_PERIODS.

This patch adds lagging_periods in iocg to record how long
the iocg has pinned lagging, will not be thought as lagging
if longer than MAX_LAGGING_PERIODS.

v2:
 - add lagging_periods to check very long lagging iocg.
