In dirty_log_perf_test, provide option 'k' to specify the size of the
chunks and clear dirty memory in chunks in each iteration. If this
option is not provided then fallback to old way of clearing whole
memslot in one call per iteration.
In production environment whole memslot is rarely cleared in a single
call, instead clearing operation is split across multiple calls to
reduce time between clearing and sending memory to a remote host. This
change mimics the production usecases and allow to get metrics based on
that.
