Revert "SA spill block cache"

The SA spill_cache was originally introduced to avoid the need to
perform large kmem or vmem allocations.  Instead a small dedicated
cache of preallocated SA buffers was kept.

This solution was viable while the maximum block size was limited
to 128K.  But with the planned increase of the maximum block size
to 16M callers need to migrate to the zio_buf_alloc().  However,
they should be aware this interface is expected to change again
once the zio buffers are fully backed by scatter-gather lists.

Alternately, if the callers know these buffers will never be large
or be infrequently accessed they may kmem_alloc() or vmem_alloc()
the needed temporary space.

This change has the additional benegit of bringing the code back
inline with the upstream Illumos source.
