It might be a good idea to vary this tunable.

depending on nursery size.  Or maybe interpret it differently.

This makes more sense as a follow up for Bug 1433007 (or at the same time).

We collect the nursery in idle time if there is less than 256KB of space
remaining. However when the nursery is small this doesn't make sense, so
add a percentage-based threshold to be used when the nursery is small.

Depends on D20247

This is ready to land but I want to let telemetry settle after my last change.
