Change QUERY OCCUPANCY to show the number of files backed up for each node/filespace in a directory container storage pool.

Currently QUERY OCCUPANCY returns the number of 10GB fragments associated with each file/object.  So if a file is 54GB in size it will report this under QUERY OCCUPANCY six files; where five fragments occupy 10GB, and one as 4GB.  As a customer the number of files returned by QUERY OCCUPANCY is confusing because the sequential storage pools return the number of files and not fragments.  The only way to get the number of files backed up under a node and filespace is the following SQL select command:

 select count(*) from backups where node_name='NODE_NAME' and type='FILE' and FILESPACE_NAME='<fs_name>'
