Add monitoring of *_free_memory on io groups

Hello,

it would be nice to have monitoring of *_free_memory on SVC/FlashSystem.

remote_copy_free_memory
mirroring_free_memory
flash_copy_free_memory

This would help with monitoring of remaining memory left for bitmap copies. Setting up alert policy would be much easier than now. Currently we need to combine total and used memory in the alerts which makes it unnecessary complicated as total values differs on devices (different assignment).

Having this as datapoint make this much easier. Followup improvement would be to have this as metric on graphs to monitor trends of usage.

Thank you

    It's unlikely we'll enhance the remote copy functionality as that is being replaced by the policy based replication, but adding the memory to the policy based replication and snapshot screens will be considered
