Changed the name of the member 'perf' in the path_info structure
to 'relative_throughput' for readability.

Also, updated the related parts of comments and documents.

 Basically, dm-service-time selects a path having minimum service time
 which is calculated by:
 
-	('in-flight-size' + 'size-of-incoming-io') / 'performance'
+	('in-flight-size' + 'size-of-incoming-io') / 'relative_throughput'
 
 However, some optimizations below are used to reduce the calculation
 as much as possible.

 If such optimizations can't be applied, calculate service time, and
 compare service time.
