Implement pass-through calls for discard, zero-out, and readahead in
the IO manager so that we can take advantage of any underlying
support.
Furthermore, improve tdb write-out speed by disabling locking and only
fsyncing at the end -- we don't care about locking because having
multiple writers to the undo file will produce an undo database full
of garbage blocks; and we only need to fsync at the end because if we
fail before the end, our undo file will lack the necessary superblock
data that e2undo requires to do replay safely. Without this, we call
fsync four times per tdb update(!) This reduces the overhead of using
undo_io while converting a 2TB FS to metadata_csum from 3+ hours to 55
minutes.
