ocfs2: Abstract ocfs2_extent_tree in b-tree operations.

In the old extent tree operation, we take the hypothesis that we
are using the ocfs2_extent_list in ocfs2_dinode as the tree root.
As xattr will also use ocfs2_extent_list to store large value
for a xattr entry, we refactor the tree operation so that xattr
can use it directly.

The refactoring includes 4 steps:
1. Abstract set/get of last_eb_blk and update_clusters since they may
   be stored in different location for dinode and xattr.
2. Add a new structure named ocfs2_extent_tree to indicate the
   extent tree the operation will work on.
3. Remove all the use of fe_bh and di, use root_bh and root_el in
   extent tree instead. So now all the fe_bh is replaced with
   et->root_bh, el with root_el accordingly.
4. Make ocfs2_lock_allocators generic. Now it is limited to be only used
   in file extend allocation. But the whole function is useful when we want
   to store large EAs.

Note: This patch doesn't touch ocfs2_commit_truncate() since it is not used
for anything other than truncate inode data btrees.
