Subject: zswap: only save zswap header when necessary

We waste sizeof(swp_entry_t) for zswap header when using zsmalloc as zpool
driver because zsmalloc doesn't support eviction.

Add zpool_evictable() to detect if zpool is potentially evictable, and use
it in zswap to avoid waste memory for zswap header.
