btrfs: new inline ref storing owning subvol of data extents
In order to implement simple quota groups, we need to be able to associate a data extent with the subvolume that created it. Once you account for reflink, this information cannot be recovered without explicitly storing it. Options for storing it are: - a new key/item - a new extent inline ref item The former is backwards compatible, but wastes space, the latter is incompat, but is efficient in space and reuses the existing inline ref machinery, while only abusing it a tiny amount -- specifically, the new item is not a ref, per-se.
