Write hints helps F2FS to determine which type of segments would be
selected for buffered write.
This patch implements the mapping from write hints to segment types
as shown below.
hints segment type
----- ------------
WRITE_LIFE_SHORT CURSEG_COLD_DATA
WRITE_LIFE_EXTREME CURSEG_HOT_DATA
others CURSEG_WARM_DATA
the F2FS poliy for hot/cold seperation has precedence over this hints.
And hints are not applied in in-place update.
