Non-standard `df` options in Autotest disk space checks

Reported by jrbarnette@chromium.org, Mar 2 2016

Issue description

In the host verification code, there are two checks for available
file system space.  One of the checks uses `df -PB`, the other
uses `df -Pi`.  Neither `-B` nor `-i` is supported by the POSIX
standard.  Ideally, the Autotest code (like Chrome OS code)
should use only POSIX features.

Marking this P3 because:
  * This is hard to fix, especially relative to the cost, because
    there is no POSIX-compliant alternative to fix the problem.
  * This doesn't cause actual failures - Chrome OS currently
    supports the necessary options.

I can't imagine we're going ever to take the time to fix
this, unless/until it becomes a real problem.  When that
happens, we're _still_ going to have to find the problem
the hard way, not by reading this bug.  So, let's not carry
this around.
