Btrfs: speed up snapshot dropping
This patch contains two changes to avoid unnecessary tree block reads during
snapshot dropping.
First, check tree block's reference count and flags before reading the tree
block. if reference count > 1 and there is no need to update backrefs, we can
avoid reading the tree block.
Second, save when snapshot was created in root_key.offset. we can compare block
pointer's generation with snapshot's creation generation during updating
backrefs. If a given block was created before snapshot was created, the
snapshot can't be the tree block's owner. So we can avoid reading the block.
