These small batches are used to reduce channel overhead when passing KVs
to the IMPORT ingest process, where we actually has move sophisticated
memory monitoring in place around the big buffers. They are expected to
be small and ephemeral, but for tables with very large rows, 5k KVs can
actually become a non-trivial amount of used memory. This adds a second limit
that triggers a flush if >4MB of key/value slice cap has been added to the
batch.
Release note: none.
Release justification: bug fix.
