If an ingester crashes while doing a checkpoint, which is likely as
checkpoints are almost always happening, then a checkpoint like
checkpoint.123456.tmp will be left on disk. When the next checkpoint
succeeds, the old .tmp checkpoints are not deleted even though it will
never be used. After enough crashes it is possible to fill the entire
disk with .tmp checkpoints, bringing down an ingester.
