btrfs: send: cache utimes operations for directories if possible

Whenever we add or remove an entry to a directory, we issue an utimes
command for the directory. If we add 1000 entries to a directory (create
1000 files under it or move 1000 files to it), then we issue the same
utimes command 1000 times, which increases the send stream size, results
in more pipe IO, one search in the send b+tree, allocating one path for
the search, etc, as well as making the receiver do a system call for each
duplicated utimes command.

We also issue an utimes command when we create a new directory, but later
we might add entries to it corresponding to inodes with an higher inode
number, so it's pointless to issue the utimes command before we create
the last inode under the directory.

So use a lru cache to track directories for which we must send a utimes
command. When we need to remove an entry from the cache, we issue the
utimes command for the respective directory. When finishing the send
operation, we go over each cache element and issue the respective utimes
command. Finally the caching is entirely optional, just a performance
optimization, meaning that if we fail to cache (due to memory allocation
failure), we issue the utimes command right away, that is, we fallback
to the previous, unoptimized, behaviour.

This patch belongs to a patchset comprised of the following patches:

  btrfs: send: directly return from did_overwrite_ref() and simplify it
  btrfs: send: avoid unnecessary generation search at did_overwrite_ref()
  btrfs: send: directly return from will_overwrite_ref() and simplify it
  btrfs: send: avoid extra b+tree searches when checking reference overrides
  btrfs: send: remove send_progress argument from can_rmdir()
  btrfs: send: avoid duplicated orphan dir allocation and initialization
  btrfs: send: avoid unnecessary orphan dir rbtree search at can_rmdir()
  btrfs: send: reduce searches on parent root when checking if dir can be removed
  btrfs: send: iterate waiting dir move rbtree only once when processing refs
  btrfs: send: initialize all the red black trees earlier
  btrfs: send: genericize the backref cache to allow it to be reused
  btrfs: adapt lru cache to allow for 64 bits keys on 32 bits systems
  btrfs: send: cache information about created directories
  btrfs: allow a generation number to be associated with lru cache entries
  btrfs: add an api to delete a specific entry from the lru cache
  btrfs: send: use the lru cache to implement the name cache
  btrfs: send: update size of roots array for backref cache entries
  btrfs: send: cache utimes operations for directories if possible

The following test was run before and after applying the whole patchset,
and on a non-debug kernel (Debian's default kernel config):

   #!/bin/bash

   MNT=/mnt/sdi
   DEV=/dev/sdi

   mkfs.btrfs -f $DEV > /dev/null
   mount $DEV $MNT

   mkdir $MNT/A
   for ((i = 1; i <= 20000; i++)); do
       echo -n > $MNT/A/file_$i
   done

   btrfs subvolume snapshot -r $MNT $MNT/snap1

   mkdir $MNT/B
   for ((i = 20000; i <= 40000; i++)); do
       echo -n > $MNT/B/file_$i
   done

   mv $MNT/A/file_* $MNT/B/

   btrfs subvolume snapshot -r $MNT $MNT/snap2

   start=$(date +%s%N)
   btrfs send -p $MNT/snap1 $MNT/snap2 > /dev/null
   end=$(date +%s%N)

   dur=$(( (end - start) / 1000000 ))
   echo "Incremental send took $dur milliseconds"

   umount $MNT

Before the whole patchset: 18408 milliseconds
After the whole patchset:   1942 milliseconds  (9.5x speedup)

Using 60000 files instead of 40000:

Before the whole patchset: 39764 milliseconds
After the whole patchset:   3076 milliseconds  (12.9x speedup)

Using 20000 files instead of 40000:

After the whole patchset:    916 milliseconds  (5.5x speedup)
