diskfile: don't remove recently written non-durables
DiskFileManager will remove any stale files during cleanup_ondisk_files(): these include tombstones and nondurable EC data fragments whose timestamps are older than reclaim_age. It can usually be safely assumed that a non-durable data fragment older than reclaim_age is not going to become durable. However, if an agent PUTs objects with specified older X-Timestamps (for example the reconciler or container-sync) then there is a window of time during which the object server has written an old non-durable data file but has not yet committed it to make it durable. Previously, if another process (for example the reconstructor) called cleanup_ondisk_files during this window then the non-durable data file would be removed. The subsequent attempt to commit the data file would then result in a traceback due to there no longer being a data file to rename, and of course the data file is lost. This patch modifies cleanup_ondisk_files to not remove old, otherwise stale, non-durable data files that were only written to disk in the preceding 'commit_window' seconds. 'commit_window' is configurable for the object server and defaults to 60.0 seconds.
