btrfs: qgroup: Introduce per-root swapped blocks infrastructure



To allow delayed subtree swap rescan, btrfs needs to record per-root
information about which tree blocks get swapped.  This patch introduces
the required infrastructure.

The designed workflow will be:

1) Record the subtree root block that gets swapped.

   During subtree swap:
   O = Old tree blocks
   N = New tree blocks
         reloc tree                         subvolume tree X
            Root                               Root
           /    \                             /    \
         NA     OB                          OA      OB
       /  |     |  \                      /  |      |  \
     NC  ND     OE  OF                   OC  OD     OE  OF

  In this case, NA and OA are going to be swapped, record (NA, OA) into
  subvolume tree X.

2) After subtree swap.
         reloc tree                         subvolume tree X
            Root                               Root
           /    \                             /    \
         OA     OB                          NA      OB
       /  |     |  \                      /  |      |  \
     OC  OD     OE  OF                   NC  ND     OE  OF

3a) COW happens for OB
    If we are going to COW tree block OB, we check OB's bytenr against
    tree X's swapped_blocks structure.
    If it doesn't fit any, nothing will happen.

3b) COW happens for NA
    Check NA's bytenr against tree X's swapped_blocks, and get a hit.
    Then we do subtree scan on both subtrees OA and NA.
    Resulting 6 tree blocks to be scanned (OA, OC, OD, NA, NC, ND).

    Then no matter what we do to subvolume tree X, qgroup numbers will
    still be correct.
    Then NA's record gets removed from X's swapped_blocks.

4)  Transaction commit
    Any record in X's swapped_blocks gets removed, since there is no
    modification to swapped subtrees, no need to trigger heavy qgroup
    subtree rescan for them.

This will introduce 128 bytes overhead for each btrfs_root even qgroup
is not enabled. This is to reduce memory allocations and potential
failures.
