Updated get_more_nodes algorithm

The handoff nodes will try to be in zones other than the primary
zones, will take into account the device weights, and will usually
keep the same sequences of handoffs even with ring changes.

On a real ring test the old get_more_nodes placed data mostly evenly
across zones, which is a problem for differently weighted zones. But
the real problem was that the extra partitions given to each device
was 0% to 0.77% with only 46.05% of the candidate devices getting
anything. Some of the devices increased in effective weight over 50%
in the test.

The new get_more_nodes placed closer to what the zone weights were
and the extra partitions given to each device was 0% to 0.24% with
90.58% of the candidate devices getting something. The worst off
device only increased in effective weight by 10.71%.
