> If there is data which is left over from a topology change and is not yet cleaned up, it will be included in the total for BytesRepaired, BytesUnrepaired or BytesPendingRepair metrics.
>  This can distort the total and lead to misleading metrics (albeit potentially short-lived).
>  As an operator if you wanted to keep track of percent repaired, you might not have an accurate idea of the relevant percent repaired under such conditions.
> I propose we only include sstables owned by the node in the totals for BytesRepaired, BytesUnrepaired, BytesPendingRepair and PercentRepaired. It feels more logical to only emit metrics like repaired/un-repaired for data which can actually be repaired.
> When an SStable is partially owned by the node, we can compute the size which falls within the token-range by binary searching the index for the uncompressed offsets.
>  We can finally also emit a metric which consists of all the data which is not owned by the node.
>  This might also be helpful for operators to discover whether there is data which is not owned by the node and hence the need to run cleanup.   
> On slight complication is that with a large number of sstables and a reasonable number of vnodes, computing these values now becomes a bit expensive. There is probably a way of keeping some of these metrics updated online rather than re-computing periodically, though this might be a bit fiddly. Alternately using things like the interval tree or some other data-structure might be enough to ensure it performs sufficiently and doesn't add undue overhead.
