posix: leverage FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE in zerofill fop

posix_zerofill() implements zerofilling of a given (offset,length) by
doing a writev in a loop followed by an optional fsync on the file.
fallocate(2) has a FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE flag which does away with all
this and provides the same result (from a userspace application point of
view) with a single syscall. This patch attempts the zerofill with the
latter and falls back to the former if it fails.

Tested using a libgfapi based C program on XFS and observed using gdb that
posix_zerofill()'s call to fallocate with FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE was a
success.
