btrfs: zoned: activate metadata block group on write time

In the current implementation, block groups are activated at reservation
time to ensure that all reserved bytes can be written to an active metadata
block group. However, this approach has proven to be less efficient, as it
activates block groups more frequently than necessary, putting pressure on
the active zone resource and leading to potential issues such as early
ENOSPC or hung_task.

Another drawback of the current method is that it hampers metadata
over-commit, and necessitates additional flush operations and block group
allocations, resulting in decreased overall performance.

To address these issues, this commit introduces a write-time activation of
metadata and system block group. This involves reserving at least one
active block group specifically for a metadata and system block group.

Since metadata write-out is always allocated sequentially, when we need to
write to a non-active block group, we can wait for the ongoing IOs to
complete, activate a new block group, and then proceed with writing to the
new block group.
