Subject: [PATCH v2] f2fs: separate NOCoW and pinfile semantics

Pinning a file is heavy, because skipping pinned files make GC
running with heavy load or no effect.

So that this patch propose to separate nocow and pinfile semantics:
- NOCoW flag can only be set on regular file.
- NOCoW file will only trigger IPU at common writeback/flush.
- NOCow file will do OPU during GC.

For the demand of 1) avoid fragment of file's physical block and
2) userspace don't care about file's specific physical address,
tagging file as NOCoW will be cheaper than pinned one.
