Allow and prefer special vdevs as ZIL
Before this change ZIL blocks were allocated only from normal or
SLOG vdevs.  In typical situation when special vdevs are SSDs and
normal are HDDs it could cause weird inversions when data blocks
are written to SSDs, but ZIL referencing them to HDDs.

This change assumes that special vdevs typically have much better
(or at least not worse) latency than normal, and so in absence of
SLOGs should store ZIL blocks.  It means similar to normal vdevs
introduction of special embedded log allocation class and updating
the allocation fallback order to: SLOG -> special embedded log ->
special -> normal embedded log -> normal.

The code tries to guess whether data block is going to be written
to normal or special vdev (it can not be done precisely before
compression) and prefer indirect writes for blocks written to a
special vdev to avoid double-write.  For blocks that are going to
be written to normal vdev, special vdev by default plays as SLOG,
reducing write latency by the cost of higher special vdev wear,
but it is tunable via module parameter.

This should allow HDD pools with decent SSD as special vdev to
work under synchronous workloads without requiring additional
SLOG SSD, impractical in many scenarios.
