Previously, the btree has always been self contained and internally
consistent on disk without anything from the journal - the journal just
contained pointers to the btree roots.
However, this meant that btree node split or compact operations - i.e.
anything that changes btree node topology and involves updates to
interior nodes - would require that interior btree node to be written
immediately, which means emitting a btree node write that's mostly empty
(using 4k of space on disk if the filesystemm blocksize is 4k to only
write perhaps ~100 bytes of new keys).
More importantly, this meant most btree node writes had to be FUA, and
consumer drives have a history of slow and/or buggy FUA support - other
filesystes have been bit by this.
This patch changes the interior btree update path to journal updates to
interior nodes, after the writes for the new btree nodes have completed.
Best of all, it turns out to simplify the interior node update path
somewhat.

Ever since the btree code was first written, handling of overwriting
existing extents - including partially overwriting and splittin existing
extents - was handled as part of the core btree insert path. The modern
transaction and iterator infrastructure didn't exist then, so that was
the only way for it to be done.
This patch moves that outside of the core btree code to a pass that runs
at transaction commit time.
This is a significant simplification to the btree code and overall
reduction in code size, but more importantly it gets us much closer to
the core btree code being completely independent of extents and is
important prep work for snapshots.
This introduces a new feature bit; the old and new extent update models
are incompatible when the filesystem needs journal replay.

Prep work for journalling updates to interior nodes - enforcing ordering
will greatly simplify those changes.

More prep work for snapshots: extents will soon be using
KEY_TYPE_deleted for whiteouts, with 0 size. But we wen't be able to
keep these whiteouts with the rest of the extents in the btree node, due
to sorting invariants breaking.
We can deal with this by immediately moving the new whiteouts to the
unwritten whiteouts area - this just means those whiteouts won't be
sorted, so we need new code to sort them prior to merging them with the
rest of the keys to be written.

The main optimization here is that if we let
bch2_replicas_delta_list_apply() fail, we can completely skip calling
bch2_bkey_replicas_marked_locked().
And assorted other small optimizations.

This is prep work for the btree key cache: btree iterators will point to
either struct btree, or a new struct bkey_cached.

bch2_alloc_sectors_start() was a nightmare to work with - it's got some
tricky stuff to do, since it wants to use the buckets the writepoint
already has, unless they're not in the target it wants to write to,
unless it can't allocate from any other devices in which case it will
use those buckets if it has to - et cetera.
This restructures the code to start with a new empty list of open
buckets we're going to use for the new allocation, pulling buckets from
the write point's list as we decide that we really are going to use
them - making the code somewhat more functional and drastically easier
to understand.
Also fixes a bug where we could end up waiting on c->freelist_wait
(because allocating from one device failed) but return success from
bch2_bucket_alloc(), because allocating from a different device
succeeded.
