btrfs: add flags to give an hint to the chunk allocator (rebased on v6.2)

Add the following flags to give an hint about which chunk should be
allocated in which a disk.
The following flags are created:

- BTRFS_DEV_ALLOCATION_PREFERRED_DATA
  preferred data chunk, but metadata chunk allowed
- BTRFS_DEV_ALLOCATION_PREFERRED_METADATA
  preferred metadata chunk, but data chunk allowed
- BTRFS_DEV_ALLOCATION_METADATA_ONLY
  only metadata chunk allowed
- BTRFS_DEV_ALLOCATION_DATA_ONLY
  only data chunk allowed
