labstore: tweak alerting thresholds

With the new more efficient system, it is normal for iowait
to increase to as much as 40-45% for extended periods of time
when more than one backup is taking place in parallel.

Since that level of activity clearly has no noticable
negative impact on performance overall[1] it is wiser to raise
the threshold to above that number to avoid false positives.

[1] Indeed, the backups run at ionice level Idle and therefore
wait on clients - with the net result that they spend most
of the time in iowait themselves and raise the number.
