bcache: Move journal work to new flush wq

This is potentially long running and not latency sensitive, let's get
it out of the way of other latency sensitive events.

As observed in the previous commit, the `system_wq` comes easily
congested by bcache, and this fixes a few more stalls I was observing
every once in a while.

Let's not make this `WQ_MEM_RECLAIM` as it showed to reduce performance
of boot and file system operations in my tests. Also, without
`WQ_MEM_RECLAIM`, I no longer see desktop stalls. This matches the
previous behavior as `system_wq` also does no memory reclaim:

> // workqueue.c:
> system_wq = alloc_workqueue("events", 0, 0);

Revert "bcache: Kill btree_io_wq"

This reverts commit 56b30770b27d54d68ad51eccc6d888282b568cee.

With the btree using the `system_wq`, I seem to see a lot more desktop
latency than I should.

After some more investigation, it looks like the original assumption
of 56b3077 no longer is true, and bcache has a very high potential of
congesting the `system_wq`. In turn, this introduces laggy desktop
performance, IO stalls (at least with btrfs), and input events may be
delayed.

So let's revert this. It's important to note that the semantics of
using `system_wq` previously mean that `btree_io_wq` should be created
before and destroyed after other bcache wqs to keep the same
assumptions.

bcache: consider the fragmentation when update the writeback rate

Current way to calculate the writeback rate only considered the
dirty sectors, this usually works fine when the fragmentation
is not high, but it will give us unreasonable small rate when
we are under a situation that very few dirty sectors consumed
a lot dirty buckets. In some case, the dirty bucekts can reached
to CUTOFF_WRITEBACK_SYNC while the dirty data(sectors) not even
reached the writeback_percent, the writeback rate will still
be the minimum value (4k), thus it will cause all the writes to be
stucked in a non-writeback mode because of the slow writeback.

We accelerate the rate in 3 stages with different aggressiveness,
the first stage starts when dirty buckets percent reach above
BCH_WRITEBACK_FRAGMENT_THRESHOLD_LOW (50), the second is
BCH_WRITEBACK_FRAGMENT_THRESHOLD_MID (57), the third is
BCH_WRITEBACK_FRAGMENT_THRESHOLD_HIGH (64). By default
the first stage tries to writeback the amount of dirty data
in one bucket (on average) in (1 / (dirty_buckets_percent - 50)) second,
the second stage tries to writeback the amount of dirty data in one bucket
in (1 / (dirty_buckets_percent - 57)) * 100 millisecond, the third
stage tries to writeback the amount of dirty data in one bucket in
(1 / (dirty_buckets_percent - 64)) millisecond.

the initial rate at each stage can be controlled by 3 configurable
parameters writeback_rate_fp_term_{low|mid|high}, they are by default
1, 10, 1000, the hint of IO throughput that these values are trying
to achieve is described by above paragraph, the reason that
I choose those value as default is based on the testing and the
production data, below is some details:

A. When it comes to the low stage, there is still a bit far from the 70
threshold, so we only want to give it a little bit push by setting the
term to 1, it means the initial rate will be 170 if the fragment is 6,
it is calculated by bucket_size/fragment, this rate is very small,
but still much reasonable than the minimum 8.
For a production bcache with unheavy workload, if the cache device
is bigger than 1 TB, it may take hours to consume 1% buckets,
so it is very possible to reclaim enough dirty buckets in this stage,
thus to avoid entering the next stage.

B. If the dirty buckets ratio didn't turn around during the first stage,
it comes to the mid stage, then it is necessary for mid stage
to be more aggressive than low stage, so i choose the initial rate
to be 10 times more than low stage, that means 1700 as the initial
rate if the fragment is 6. This is some normal rate
we usually see for a normal workload when writeback happens
because of writeback_percent.

C. If the dirty buckets ratio didn't turn around during the low and mid
stages, it comes to the third stage, and it is the last chance that
we can turn around to avoid the horrible cutoff writeback sync issue,
then we choose 100 times more aggressive than the mid stage, that
means 170000 as the initial rate if the fragment is 6. This is also
inferred from a production bcache, I've got one week's writeback rate
data from a production bcache which has quite heavy workloads,
again, the writeback is triggered by the writeback percent,
the highest rate area is around 100000 to 240000, so I believe this
kind aggressiveness at this stage is reasonable for production.
And it should be mostly enough because the hint is trying to reclaim
1000 bucket per second, and from that heavy production env,
it is consuming 50 bucket per second on average in one week's data.

Option writeback_consider_fragment is to control whether we want
this feature to be on or off, it's on by default.

Lastly, below is the performance data for all the testing result,
including the data from production env:
