xfs: exact busy extent tracking

Update the extent tree in case we have to reuse a busy extent, so that it
always is kept uptodate.  This is done by replacing the busy list searches
with a new xfs_alloc_busy_reuse helper, which updates the busy extent tree
in case of a reuse.  This allows us to allow reusing metadata extents
unconditionally, and thus avoid log forces especially for allocation btree
blocks.
