If gc_mode is set to GC_URGENT_LOW or GC_URGENT_MID, cost benefit GC
approach should be used, but if ATGC is enabled at the same time,
Age-threshold approach will be selected, which can only do amount of
GC and it is much less than the numbers of CB approach.

v3: add more descriptions in sys-fs-f2fs for gc_urgent(2) and gc_urgent(3)
v2: make GC_URGENT_LOW also use CB approach
