[torqueusers] checkjob shows 16-CPU job when extra CPUs were not requested

[Peter van Heusden]

Thanks Al. Seems very non-intuitive though - I thought resources_max
specifies the *maximum* resources a job can require? And then
resources_available is how much is available...

Oh well, I guess I also need to explicitely specify resources_default
for the queue (or for the server)?
