This PR is based on #492.
The new multi-CTA algorithm proposed in #492 can be used to obtain good recall even with high filtering rates. However, good recall cannot be obtained unless the number of search iterations, or itopk size, one of CAGRA's search parameters, is appropriately increased according to the filtering rate. Therefore, users need to find the appropriate itopk size according to the filtering rate by trial and error, which is a pain.
This PR is intended to alleviate this problem by internally calculating the filtering rate and automatically adjusting the itopk size accordingly.
