The reason for doing this is to allow all the block mapping code
to share the same array. As a result we can remove two arguments
from lookup_metapath since they are now returned via the array.

We also add a function to drop all refs to buffer heads when we
are done with the metapath. The build_height function shares the
struct metapath, but currently still frees its own buffers, and
this will change in a future patch.
