What this PR does / why we need it:
This PR makes it possible for cluster autoscaler to perform scale down on a node group even when there are some schedulable pods that can be fit on other node groups.
Similar change was previously discussed here: #3547 (comment), however in the end it was abandoned.
As currently scale up and scale down use cluster snapshot, scale down is aware that some pods may be scheduled on nodes and it won't remove them.
This was tested in following scenario: there were two node groups, one for workload A, the other for workload B. Shortly after Job A pods finished (triggering scale down), Job B pods started, triggering scale up for node group B. Together with this change and scale down delay after scale up set to 0, there were concurrent scale up and scale down in progress. Scale up and scale down were both successful, so it should be safe to assume this change does not break anything.
