This new tree block flag is to indicate the tree block belongs to a log
tree.
For btrfs on-disk format, there are several different trees could use
the same owner number:
- ordinary subvolume tree
- log tree for ordinary subvolume
- reloc tree for ordinary subvolume
It's possible to do the backref walk or use the content to determine the
real owner of the tree block.
But backref walk is too expensive, content detection is not reliable.
So adding a new flag to explicitly show the owner of log tree.
Thankfully, tree-checker hasn't checked header flags yet, and there is
no real user for this flag yet.
So we don't need to introduce any compatibility flag for this
modification.
The introduction of this new flag makes tree block owner easier to
distinguish, making life easier for:
- tree checker on log tree
Log tree could contain some items impossible for regular trees
- performance profiler
Now it's much easier to distinguish log tree.
