   @alamb @viirya I removed spilling into subbatches and now spilling the 
entire batch. 
   Reasoning for that:
   - in some extreme batch sizes like 1, the problem with subbatches and mask 
can occur(added the test scenario as well)
   - even if subbatches makes the reader consume less memory before the spill 
we still need to get this batch allocated in memory, so not much benefit in 
this case.
   - to make more subbatching and less memory approach we need to make SMJ 
async and work with stream of batches internally, which is much more work 
involved.
