io: increase the default io memory from 4 to 8 MiB
This is the default bcache size that is created at the
start of the command. It needs to be large enough to
hold a single copy of metadata for a given VG, or the
VG cannot be read or written (since the entire VG would
not fit into available memory.)
Increasing the default reduces the chances of anyone
needing to increase the default to use their VG.
The size can be set in lvm.conf global/io_memory_size;
the lower limit is 4 MiB and the upper limit is 128 MiB.
