Consider QOS flags Partition[Min|Max]Nodes when doing backfill.
Bug 3530 NOTE: there does appear to be other issues here, but we didn't fell comfortable changing this many things in 17.02 for fear of breaking something. This only fixes a bit of the issue as it appears node_scheduler.c has a fuller test for these. In 17.11 I plan to make this a function that will fill in the min, req, max nodes and use it in both places in the code to prevent this from happening again.
