Subject: [PATCH v7 13/25] perf threads: Reduce table size from 256 to 8

The threads data structure is an array of hashmaps, previously
rbtrees. The two levels allows for a fixed outer array where access is
guarded by rw_semaphores. Commit 91e467bc568f ("perf machine: Use
hashtable for machine threads") sized the outer table at 256 entries
to avoid future scalability problems, however, this means the threads
struct is sized at 30,720 bytes. As the hashmaps allow O(1) access for
the common find/insert/remove operations, lower the number of entries
to 8. This reduces the size overhead to 960 bytes.
