fs: Move enum rw_hint into a new header file

Move enum rw_hint into a new header file to prepare for using this data
type in the block layer. Add the attribute __packed to reduce the space
occupied by instances of this data type from four bytes to one byte.
Change the data type of i_write_hint from u8 into enum rw_hint.
