Fix rare dsa_allocate() failures due to freepage.c corruption.
In a corner case, a btree page was allocated during a clean-up operation
that could cause the tracking of the largest contiguous span of free
space to get out of whack. That was supposed to be prevented by the use
of the "soft" flag to avoid allocating internal pages during incidental
clean-up work, but the flag was ignored in the case where the FPM was
promoted from singleton format to btree format. Repair.
Remove an obsolete comment in passing.
Back-patch to 10, where freepage.c arrived (as support for dsa.c).
