preemption logic is triggered for the pending Pod. Let's call the pending Pod P.
Preemption logic tries to find a Node where removal of one or more Pods with
lower priority than P would enable P to be scheduled on that Node. If such a
Node is found, one or more lower priority Pods get deleted from the Node. After
Node is found, one or more lower priority Pods get evicted from the Node. After
the Pods are gone, P can be scheduled on the Node.
