Run arc_evict thread at higher priority

Description

Run arc_evict thread at higher priority

Run arc_evict thread at higher priority, nice=0, to give it more CPU
time which can improve performance for workload with high ARC evict
activities.

On mixed read/write and sequential read workloads, I've seen between
10-40% better performance.
