In write_one_cache_group() we always do COW to update BLOCK_GROUP_ITEM.
However under a lot of cases, the cache->item is not changed at all.
E.g:
Transaction 123, block group [1M, 1M + 16M)
tree block 1M + 0 get freed
tree block 1M + 16K get allocated.
Transaction 123 get committed.
In this case, used space of block group [1M, 1M + 16M) doesn't changed
at all, thus we don't need to do COW to update block group item.
This patch will make write_one_cache_group() to do a read-only search
first, then do COW if we really need to update block group item.
This should reduce the btrfs_write_dirty_block_groups() and
btrfs_run_delayed_refs() loop introduced in previous commit.
