My guess would be that ext4 is by far the most widely used filesystem for servers and certainly is for Android. After that, I would guess that fat is still widely used for USB storage and iso9660 for install media (USB) and VMs.

I would also mention that the EFI System Partition is almost always FAT, and the device-mapper layer is used to support LVM and dm-crypt/LUKS (among others), so (while not a filesystem per se) it would also need to be migrated early.
