Btrfs: prevent send failures and crashes due to concurrent relocation

Send always operates on read-only trees and always expected that while it
is in progress, nothing changes in those trees. Due to that expectation
and the fact that send is a read-only operation, it operates on commit
roots and does not hold transaction handles. However relocation can COW
nodes and leafs from read-only trees, which can cause unexpected failures
and crashes (hitting BUG_ONs). while send using a node/leaf, it gets
COWed, the transaction used to COW it is committed, a new transaction
starts, the extent previously used for that node/leaf gets allocated,
possibly for another tree, and the respective extent buffer' content
changes while send is still using it. When this happens send normally
fails with EIO being returned to user space and messages like the
following are found in dmesg/syslog:

  [ 3408.699121] BTRFS error (device sdc): parent transid verify failed on 58703872 wanted 250 found 253
  [ 3441.523123] BTRFS error (device sdc): did not find backref in send_root. inode=63211, offset=0, disk_byte=5222825984 found extent=5222825984

Other times, less often, we hit a BUG_ON() because an extent buffer that
send is using used to be a node, and while send is still using it, it
got COWed and got reused as a leaf while send is still using, producing
the following trace:

Another possibility, much less likely to happen, is that send will not
fail but the contents of the stream it produces may not be correct.

To avoid this, do not allow send and relocation (balance) to run in
parallel. In the long term the goal is to allow for both to be able to
run concurrently without any problems, but that will take a significant
effort in development and testing.
