    tier/ctr: Providing option to record or ignore metadata heat
    
    Currently we heat up a file for both data and metadata write.
    Here we provide a ctr xlator option called "ctr-record-metadata-heat"
    were the admin can decide on recording metadata heat i.e heatup a
    file on metadata writes or not.
    Metadata data operation are
    a. setattr: explicit changing of atime/mtime using utimes,
                changing of posix permissions of the file
    b. rename: Renaming a file,
    c. unlink, link: adding or deleting hardlinks
    d. xattrs: setting or removal of xattrs.
    
    NOTE: atime, mtime and ctime change through writev, readv, truncate, mknod
    and create will not be considered here as these fops are data and primary
    metadata fops.
    
    Defaultly "ctr-record-metadata-heat" is off. Admin can
    switch it on using gluster volume set command.
