xfs: count EFIs when deciding to ask for a continuation of a refcount update

A long time ago, I added to XFS the ability to use deferred reference
count operations as part of a transaction chain.  This enabled us to
avoid blowing out the transaction reservation when the blocks in a
physical extent all had different reference counts because we could ask
the deferred operation manager for a continuation, which would get us a
clean transaction.

The refcount code asks for a continuation when the number of refcount
record updates reaches the point where we think that the transaction has
logged enough full btree blocks due to refcount (and free space) btree
shape changes and refcount record updates that we're in danger of
overflowing the transaction.

We did not previously count the EFIs logged to the refcount update
transaction because the clamps on the length of a bunmap operation were
sufficient to avoid overflowing the transaction reservation even in the
worst case situation where every other block of the unmapped extent is
shared.

Unfortunately, the restrictions on bunmap length avoid failure in the
worst case by imposing a maximum unmap length of ~3000 blocks, even for
non-pathological cases.  This seriously limits performance when freeing
large extents.

Therefore, track EFIs with the same counter as refcount record updates,
and use that information as input into when we should ask for a
continuation.  This enables the next patch to drop the clumsy bunmap
limitation.
