Start allocation and reclaim scans only where they may find a match
If usageSet is heavily fragmented, findUnallocatedRange and findReclaimable
can spend excessive cycles linearly scanning the set for unallocated/free
pages.
Improve common cases by beginning the scan only at the first page that could
possibly contain an unallocated/free page. This metadata only guarantees that
there is no lower unallocated/free page, but a scan may still be required
(especially for multi-page allocations).
That said, this heuristic can still provide significant performance
improvements for certain applications.
