Description

The smallest indirect block size that we use is 4K (for the DDT). We should
encode and enforce this in the code. This will ensure that we never do
something wasteful like set the indirect block size to 1K when on 4K-sector
devices (which ztest does today). It also allows some space estimates to be
tighter, and to use a little less memory for some data structures that have an
entry per possible level.
