Introduce ZFS module parameter l2arc_mfuonly 

In certain workloads it may be beneficial to reduce wear of L2ARC
devices by not caching MRU metadata and data into L2ARC. This commit
introduces a new tunable l2arc_mfuonly for this purpose.

Controls whether only MFU metadata and data are cached from ARC into L2ARC.
This may be desired to avoid wasting space on L2ARC when reading/writing large
amounts of data that are not expected to be accessed more than once. The
default is \fB0\fR, meaning both MRU and MFU data and metadata are cached.
When turning off (\fB0\fR) this feature some MRU buffers will still be present
in ARC and eventually cached on L2ARC.

Use \fB0\fR for no (default) and \fB1\fR for yes.
