Do CPU load averaging over a number of different intervals.  Allow each
interval to be chosen by sending a parameter to source_load and target_load.
0 is instantaneous, idx > 0 returns a decaying average with the most recent
sample weighted at 2^(idx-1).  To a maximum of 3 (could be easily increased).

So generally a higher number will result in more conservative balancing.
