  Log:
  Fix some IO sequencing performance issues and reformulate the strategy
  we use to deal with potential buffer cache deadlocks.  Generally speaking
  try to remove roadblocks in the vn_strategy() path.
  
  * Remove buf->b_tid (HAMMER no longer needs it)
  
  * Replace IO_NOWDRAIN with IO_NOBWILL, requesting that bwillwrite() not
    be called.  Used by VN to try to avoid deadlocking.  Remove B_NOWDRAIN.
  
  * No longer block in bwrite() or getblk() when we have a lot of dirty
    buffers.   getblk() in particular needs to be callable by filesystems
    to drain dirty buffers and we don't want to deadlock.
  
  * Improve bwillwrite() by having it wake up the buffer flusher at 1/2 the
    dirty buffer limit but not block, and then block if the limit is reached.
    This should smooth out flushes during heavy filesystem activity.
