Introduce minimal ZIL block commit delay
Despite all optimizations, tests on actual hardware show that FreeBSD
kernel can't sleep for less then ~2us. Similar tests on Linux show
~50us delay at least from nanosleep() (haven't tested inside kernel).
It means that on very fast log device ZIL may not be able to satisfy
zfs_commit_timeout_pct block commit timeout, increasing log latency
more than desired.
Handle that by introduction of zil_min_commit_timeout parameter,
specifying minimal timeout value where additional delays to aggregate
writes may be skipped. Also skip delays if the LWB is more than 7/8
full, that often happens if I/O sizes are constant and match one of
LWB sizes. Both things are applied only if there were no already
outstanding log blocks, that may indicate single-threaded workload,
that by definition can not benefit from the commit delays.
While there, add short time moving average to zl_last_lwb_latency to
make it more stable.
Tests of single-threaded 4KB writes to NVDIMM SLOG on FreeBSD show IOPS
increase by 9% instead of expected 5%. For zfs_commit_timeout_pct of
1 there IOPS increase by 5.5% instead of expected 1%.
