I think this should use set_capacity_revalidate_and_notify, although
that probably should be a separate patch.
Also I'm having a bit of a hard time following all the different changes
(even if the all look good). Maybe at least the loop_set_size
factoring should be split into another separate prep patch.

With all the other nice helper, I think this can actually be open coded
in the caller. Another useful helper would be one that checks for the
size truncation, as that is duplicated in a few places.
