dm raid: add raid4/5/6 journal write-back support via journal_mode option

Commit 63c32ed4af ("dm raid: add raid4/5/6 journaling support") added
journal support to close the raid4/5/6 "write hole" -- in terms of
writethrough caching.

Introduce a "journal_mode" feature and use the new
r5c_journal_mode_set() API to add support for switching the journal
device's cache mode between write-through (the current default) and
write-back.

NOTE: If the journal device is not layered on resilent storage and it
fails, write-through mode will cause the "write hole" to reoccur.  But
if the journal fails while in write-back mode it will cause data loss
for any dirty cache entries unless resilent storage is used for the
journal.

This option sets the caching mode on journaled raid4/5/6 raid sets
(see 'journal_dev <dev>' above) to 'writethrough' or 'writeback'.
If 'writeback' is selected the journal device has to be resilient
and must not suffer from the 'write hole' problem itself (e.g. use
raid1 or raid10) to avoid a single point of failure.
