update the default # of cores requested in a swarming task

Project Member Reported by dpranke@chromium.org, Apr 12 2017

Issue description

I believe that by default we do not ask for a certain number of cores when scheduling a swarming task, and that means that we may end up getting a machine that is not up to the task. 

See bug 708977 for an example, where we were trying to run browser_tests on a single CPU instance.

There are lots of things we could or should do here (like require tasks to specify a minimum or preferred set, etc.) but the simplest fix is at least to overprovision by default and make sure we get into the main pool of 8-core machines.

It's 2018. I'm pretty sure we have sufficiently beefy machines in the pool:Chrome, and all the specialty single-core bots have been moved into their own pools. Archiving.
