ZIL: Detect single-threaded workloads

Browse source 
... by checking that previous block is fully written and flushed.
It allows to skip commit delays since we can give up on aggregation
in that case.  This removes zil_min_commit_timeout parameter, since
for single-threaded workloads it is not needed at all, while on very
fast devices even some multi-threaded workloads may get detected as
single-threaded and still bypass the wait.  To give multi-threaded
workloads more aggregation chances increase zfs_commit_timeout_pct
from 5 to 10%, as they should suffer less from additional latency.

Also single-threaded workloads detection allows in perspective better
prediction of the next block size.
