padata: use alignment when calculating the number of worker threads
For multithreaded jobs the computed chunk size is rounded up by the caller-specified alignment. However, the number of worker threads to use is computed using the minimum chunk size without taking alignment into account. A sufficiently large alignment value can result in too many worker threads being allocated for the job.
