There could be arbitrarily large memory regions fulfilling the target
data access pattern of a DAMON-based operation scheme. In the case,
applying the action of the scheme could incur too high overhead. To
provide an intuitive way for avoiding it, this commit implements a
feature called size quota. If the quota is set, DAMON tries to apply
the action only up to the given amount of memory regions within a given
time window.
