Description
When iterating over a ZAP object, we're almost always certain to iterate over the entire object. If there are multiple leaf blocks, we can realize a performance win by issuing reads for all the leaf blocks in parallel when the iteration begins.
For example, if we have 10,000 snapshots, "zfs destroy -nv pool/fs@1%9999" can take 30 minutes when the cache is cold. This change provides a >3x performance improvement, by issuing the reads for all ~64 blocks of each ZAP object in parallel.
