xfs: add write pointer to xfs_rtgroup_geometry

Source kernel commit: c6ce65cb17aa9321687d1b8a842487f839e1a548

There is currently no XFS ioctl that allows userspace to retrieve the
write pointer for a specific realtime group block for zoned XFS. On zoned
block devices, userspace can obtain this information via zone reports from
the underlying device. However, for zoned XFS operating on regular block
devices, no equivalent mechanism exists.

Access to the realtime group write pointer is useful to userspace
development and analysis tools such as Zonar [1]. So extend the existing
struct xfs_rtgroup_geometry to add a new rg_writepointer field. This field
is valid if XFS_RTGROUP_GEOM_WRITEPOINTER flag is set. The rg_writepointer
field specifies the location of the current writepointer as a block offset
into the respective rtgroup.
