btrfs: zoned: enable metadata over-commit for non-ZNS setup



The commit 79417d04 ("btrfs: zoned: disable metadata overcommit for
zoned") disabled the metadata over-commit to track active zones properly.

However, it also introduced a heavy overhead by allocating new metadata
block groups and/or flushing dirty buffers to release the space
reservations. Specifically, a workload (write only without any sync
operations) worsen its performance from 343.77 MB/sec (v5.19) to 182.89
MB/sec (v6.0).

The performance is still bad on current misc-next which is 187.95 MB/sec.
And, with this patch applied, it improves back to 326.70 MB/sec (+73.82%).

This patch introduces a new fs_info->flag BTRFS_FS_NO_OVERCOMMIT to
indicate it needs to disable the metadata over-commit. The flag is enabled
when a device with max active zones limit is loaded into a file-system.
