ocfs2: improve write IO performance when fragmentation is high

The group_search function ocfs2_cluster_group_search() should
bypass groups with insufficient space to avoid unnecessary
searches.

This patch is particularly useful when ocfs2 is handling huge
number small files, and volume fragmentation is very high.
In this case, ocfs2 is busy with looking up available la window
from //global_bitmap.

This patch introduces a new member in the Group Description (gd)
struct called 'bg_contig_free_bits', representing the max
contigous free bits in this gd. When ocfs2 allocates a new
la window from //global_bitmap, 'bg_contig_free_bits' helps
expedite the search process.

Let's image below path.

1. la state (->local_alloc_state) is set THROTTLED or DISABLED.

2. when user delete a large file and trigger
   ocfs2_local_alloc_seen_free_bits set osb->local_alloc_state
   unconditionally.

3. a write IOs thread run and trigger the worst performance path

```
ocfs2_reserve_clusters_with_limit
 ocfs2_reserve_local_alloc_bits
  ocfs2_local_alloc_slide_window //[1]
   + ocfs2_local_alloc_reserve_for_window //[2]
   + ocfs2_local_alloc_new_window //[3]
      ocfs2_recalc_la_window
```

[1]:
will be called when la window bits used up.

[2]:
under la state is ENABLED, and this func only check global_bitmap
free bits, it will succeed in general.

[3]:
will use the default la window size to search clusters then fail.
ocfs2_recalc_la_window attempts other la window sizes.
the timing complexity is O(n^4), resulting in a significant time
cost for scanning global bitmap. This leads to a dramatic slowdown
in write I/Os (e.g., user space 'dd').

i.e.
an ocfs2 partition size: 1.45TB, cluster size: 4KB,
la window default size: 106MB.
The partition is fragmentation by creating & deleting huge mount of
small files.

before this patch, the timing of [3] should be
(the number got from real world):
- la window size change order (size: MB):
  106, 53, 26.5, 13, 6.5, 3.25, 1.6, 0.8
  only 0.8MB succeed, 0.8MB also triggers la window to disable.
  ocfs2_local_alloc_new_window retries 8 times, first 7 times totally
  runs in worst case.
- group chain number: 242
  ocfs2_claim_suballoc_bits calls for-loop 242 times
- each chain has 49 block group
  ocfs2_search_chain calls while-loop 49 times
- each bg has 32256 blocks
  ocfs2_block_group_find_clear_bits calls while-loop for 32256 bits.
  for ocfs2_find_next_zero_bit uses ffz() to find zero bit, let's use
  (32256/64) (this is not worst value) for timing calucation.

the loop times: 7*242*49*(32256/64) = 41835024 (~42 million times)

In the worst case, user space writes 1MB data will trigger 42M scanning
times.

under this patch, the timing is '7*242*49 = 83006', reduced by three
orders of magnitude.
