btrfs: beef-up btrfs support with a limited understanding of quota
With this change we understand more than just leaf quota groups for
btrfs file systems. Specifically:
- When we create a subvolume we can now optionally add the new subvolume
to all qgroups its parent subvolume was member of too. Alternatively
it is also possible to insert an intermediary quota group between the
parent's qgroups and the subvolume's leaf qgroup, which is useful for
a concept of "subtree" qgroups, that contain a subvolume and all its
children.
- The remove logic for subvolumes has been updated to optionally remove
any leaf qgroups or "subtree" qgroups, following the logic above.
- The snapshot logic for subvolumes has been updated to replicate the
original qgroup setup of the source, if it follows the "subtree"
design described above. It will not cover qgroup setups that introduce
arbitrary qgroups, especially those orthogonal to the subvolume
hierarchy.
This also tries to be more graceful when setting up /var/lib/machines as
btrfs. For example, if mkfs.btrfs is missing we don't even try to set it
up as loopback device.
