mm, vmscan: avoid thrashing anon lru when free + file is low 

The purpose of the code that commit 623762517e ("revert 'mm: vmscan:
do not swap anon pages just because free+file is low'") reintroduces is
to prefer swapping anonymous memory rather than trashing the file lru.

If the anonymous inactive lru for the set of eligible zones is
considered low, however, or the length of the list for the given reclaim
priority does not allow for effective anonymous-only reclaiming, then
avoid forcing SCAN_ANON.  Forcing SCAN_ANON will end up thrashing the
small list and leave unreclaimed memory on the file lrus.

If the inactive list is insufficient, fallback to balanced reclaim so
the file lru doesn't remain untouched.
