xfs: cleanup the transaction commit path a bit

Now that the nodelaylog mode is gone we can simplify the transaction commit
path a bit by removing the xfs_trans_commit_cil routine.  Restoring the
process flags is merged into xfs_trans_commit which already does it for
the error path, and allocating the log vectors is merged into
xlog_cil_format_items, which already fills them with data, thus avoiding
one loop over all log items.
