file-posix: add tracking of the zone write pointers

Since Linux doesn't have a user API to issue zone append operations to
zoned devices from user space, the file-posix driver is modified to add
zone append emulation using regular writes. To do this, the file-posix
driver tracks the wp location of all zones of the device. It uses an
array of uint64_t. The most significant bit of each wp location indicates
if the zone type is conventional zones.

The zones wp can be changed due to the following operations issued:
- zone reset: change the wp to the start offset of that zone
- zone finish: change to the end location of that zone
- write to a zone
- zone append
