erofs: enable large folios for fscache mode
Enable large folios for fscache mode. Enable this feature for non-compressed format for now, until the compression part supports large folios later. One thing worth noting is that, the feature is not enabled for the meta data routine since meta inodes don't need large folios for now, nor do they support readahead yet. Also document this new feature.
