zfs list: Allow more fields in ZFS_ITER_SIMPLE mode

Description

zfs list: Allow more fields in ZFS_ITER_SIMPLE mode

If the fields to be listed and sorted by are constrained
to those populated by dsl_dataset_fast_stat(), then
zfs list is much faster, as it does not need to open each
objset and reads its properties.

A previous optimization by Pawel Dawidek
(0cee24064a79f9c01fc4521543c37acea538405f) took advantage
of this to make listing snapshot names sorted only by name
much faster.

However, it was limited to -o name -s name, this work
extends this optimization to work with:

  • name
  • guid
  • createtxg
  • numclones
  • inconsistent
  • redacted
  • origin

and could be further extended to any other properties
supported by dsl_dataset_fast_stat() or similar, that do
not require extra locking or reading from disk.
