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).
