Improve zfs destroy performance with zio_t-free zio_free()
When "zfs destroy" is run, it completes quickly, and in the background
we locate the blocks to free and free them.  This background activity
can be observed with `zpool get freeing` and `zpool wait -t free ...`.

This background activity is processed by a single thread (the spa_sync
thread) which calls zio_free() on each of the blocks to free.  With even
modest storage performance, the CPU consumption of zio_free() can be the
performance bottleneck.

Performance of zio_free() can be improved by not actually creating a
zio_t in the common case (non-dedup, non-gang), instead calling
metaslab_free() directly.  This avoids the CPU cost of allocating the
zio_t, and more importantly the cost of adding and later removing this
zio_t from the parent zio's child list.

The result is that performance of background freeing more than doubles,
from 0.6 million blocks per second to 1.3 million blocks per second.
