xfs: add support for zoned space reservations

Browse source 
For zoned file systems garbage collection (GC) has to take the iolock
and mmaplock after moving data to a new place to synchronize with
readers.  This means waiting for garbage collection with the iolock can
deadlock.

To avoid this, the worst case required blocks have to be reserved before
taking the iolock, which is done using a new RTAVAILABLE counter that
tracks blocks that are free to write into and don't require garbage
collection.  The new helpers try to take these available blocks, and
if there aren't enough available it wakes and waits for GC.  This is
done using a list of on-stack reservations to ensure fairness.
