to XFS

KAFKA-3725: Update documentation with regards to XFS
I've updated the ops documentation with information on using the XFS filesystem, based on LinkedIn's testing (and subsequent switch from EXT4).
I've also added some information to clarify the potential risk to the suggested EXT4 options (again, based on my experience with a multiple broker failure situation).

> Our documentation currently states that only Ext4 has been tried (by LinkedIn):
> "Ext4 may or may not be the best filesystem for Kafka. Filesystems like XFS supposedly handle locking during fsync better. We have only tried Ext4, though."
> http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#ext4
> I think this is no longer true, so we should update the documentation.
