xfs: during btree split, save new block key & ptr for future insertion



When a btree block has to be split, we pass the new block's ptr from
xfs_btree_split() back to xfs_btree_insert() via a pointer parameter;
however, we pass the block's key through the cursor's record.  It is a
little weird to "initialize" a record from a key since the non-key
attributes will have garbage values.

When we go to add support for interval queries, we have to be able to
pass the lowest and highest keys accessible via a pointer.  There's no
clean way to pass this back through the cursor's record field.
Therefore, pass the key directly back to xfs_btree_insert() the same
way that we pass the btree_ptr.

As a bonus, we no longer need init_rec_from_key and can drop it from the
codebase.
