ext4: prevent sleeping allocation in NOWAIT write path
Block allocation requires journal access which may sleep, violating
NOWAIT semantics. Return -EAGAIN early when IOMAP_NOWAIT is set,
allowing the caller to retry without the NOWAIT constraint.
This ensures that write paths using IOMAP_NOWAIT (e.g., DIO with
RWF_NOWAIT) will not block on journal operations when blocks need
to be allocated.
