Changes since v1 (thanks Kefu!):
* Use Ceph's terminology for CRUSH rules with device classes
* adjust phrasing, as the autoscaler still scales on non-overlapping
pools

Depending on your setup, this may introduce a big performance impact on your
cluster. As an alternative, you can create a new pool and move disks separately.
+WARNING: When using the PG autoscaler, all pools in the cluster are required to
+use CRUSH rules of the same kind, either all specifying a device class,
+or none. Otherwise the autoscaler will skip the affected
+pools and their `pg_num` will not be adjusted.
