ext4: remove handle parameters from zero partial block functions

Only journal data mode requires an active journal handle when zeroing
partial blocks. Stop passing handle_t *handle to
ext4_zero_partial_blocks() and related functions, and make
ext4_block_journalled_zero_range() start a handle independently.

This change has no practical impact now because all callers invoke these
functions within the context of an active handle. It prepares for moving
ext4_block_zero_eof() out of an active handle in the next patch, which
is a prerequisite for converting block zero range operations to iomap
infrastructure.
