freebsd with flexible iflib nic queues

= Motivation
We've noticed several zloop crashes within Delphix generated
due to the following sequence of events:
- A device gets expanded and new metaslabas are allocated for
it. These metaslabs go through `metaslab_init()` but haven't
gone through `metaslab_sync_done()` yet. This meas that the
only range tree that's actually set is the `ms_allocatable`.
All the others are NULL.
- A vdev_initialization is issues and `vdev_initialize_thread`
starts processing one of these new metaslabs of the expanded
vdev.
- As part of `vdev_initialize_calculate_progress()` we call
into `metaslab_load()` and `metaslab_load_impl()` which
in turn tries to dereference the metaslabs trees that
are still NULL and therefore we crash.
The same failure can come up from the `vdev_trim` code paths.
= This Patch
We considered the following solutions to deal with this issue:
[A] Add logic to `vdev_initialize/trim` to skip those new
metaslabs. We decided against this as it would be good
to avoid exposing this lower-level detail to higer-level
operations.
[B] Have `metaslab_load_impl()` return early for new metaslabs
and thus never touch those range_trees that are NULL at
that time. This seemed more of a work-around for the bug
and not a clear-cut solution.
[C] Refactor our logic so all metaslabs have their range_trees
created at the time of their creatin in `metaslab_init()`.
In this patch we decided to go with [C] because:
(1) It doesn't expose more metaslab details to higher level
operations such as vdev initialize and trim.
(2) The current behavior of creating the range trees lazily
in `metaslab_sync_done()` is unnecessarily complicated.
(3) Always initializing the metaslab range_trees makes other
parts of the codebase cleaner. For example, we used to
use `ms_freed` as the reference value for knowing whether
all the range_trees have been initialized. Now we no
longer need to do that check in most places (and in the
few that we do we use the `ms_new` boolean field now
which is more readable).
= Side Changes
Probably due to a mismerge we set `ms_loaded` to `B_TRUE` twice
in `metasloab_load_impl()`. In this patch we remove the extraneous
assignment.
