Subject: [PATCH v3 1/4] fs: introduce FMODE_ZONE_APPEND and IOCB_ZONE_APPEND

Enable zone-append using existing O_APPEND and RWF_APPEND infra.
Unlike file-append, zone-apppend requires bit of additional processing
in common path to send completion-result to upper layer. To skip that
for non-zoned block-devices/files, introduce FMODE_ZONE_APPEND and
IOCB_ZONE_APPEND.
When a file is opened, it can subscribe to zone-append by setting
FMODE_ZONE_APPEND. Add IOCB_ZONE_APPEND which is set in kiocb->ki_flags
if write meets existing file-append critera, and file has subscribed to
zone-append.
