When a hash table write fails, we skip over the write throttling because
we didn't report that we successfully wrote an extent. This can be bad
if the filesystem is full and the allocations for writes are burning a
lot of CPU time searching for free space.
We also don't retry the write later on since we assume the extent is
clean after a write attempt whether it was successful or not, so the
extent might not be written out later when writes are possible again.
Check whether a hash extent is dirty, and always throttle after
attempting the write.
If a write fails, leave the extent dirty so we attempt to write it out
the next time flush cycles through the hash table. During shutdown
this will reattempt each failing write once, after that the updated hash
table data will be dropped.

If we have loadavg targeting enabled, there may be no worker threads

On large filesystems where the min_transid of all subvols gets stuck at 0,
bees may lose the ability to effectively track recent data. A secondary sort
by max_transid will allow scanning newer subvols that were created after bees
started running on the filesystem, but before bees completed the first scan
of all subvols.
On the other hand, the secondary sort does a reverse version of the
sequential scan mode, and the sequential scan mode is simply awful.
Disable it for now.

Split each scan mode into two distinct phases:
1. A heavy discovery phase, where we search the entire filesystem
for something (new items in subvol trees in this case).
2. A light consuming phase, where we fetch extents to dedupe
from places that we found in the discovery phase.
Part 1 recomputes the subvol ordering every time there is a new transid.
For some scan modes this computation is quite expensive, far too costly
to pay for every extent, so we do it no more than once per transaction.
Part 2 is run every time a worker thread hits the crawl_more Task.
It simply pulls one extent from the first crawler off a sorted list,
removing the crawler from the list when the crawler runs out of data.
Part 1 creates a new structure and swaps it into place, while Part 2
continues to run using the previous strucuture. Neither of these
need to block the other, so they don't.
The separate class and base pointer also make it easer to add new scan
modes that are not based on subvol trees or that don't use BeesCrawl.
While we're here, fix up some method visibility in BeesRoots.

Crawl mode 3 'recent' prioritizes data from new updates to previously
scanned subvols over subvols that have not been completely scanned yet.
If no such new data exists, falls back to a variation of 'lockstep'
scan mode.
This enables us to keep up with new data as it arrives, a key weakness
of all the other scan modes, and worth violating our unwritten "no new
scan modes until we have extent-tree dedupe working" policy for.

Inode-oriented scan workers must do all of their work sequentially,
so it's counterproductive to spawn a Task to do a background dedupe.
Signed-off-by: Zygo Blaxell <bees@furryterror.org>
When two Tasks attempt to lock the same extent, append the later Task
to the earlier Task's post-exec work queue. This will guarantee that
all Tasks which attempt to manipulate the same extent will execute
sequentially, and free up threads to process other extents.
Similarly, if two scanner threads operate on the same inode, any dedupe
they perform will lock out other scanner threads in btrfs. Avoid this
by serializing Task objects that reference the same file.
This does theoretically use an unbounded amount of memory, but in practice
a Task that encounters a contended extent or inode quickly stops spawning
new Tasks that might increase the queue size, and all Tasks that might
contend for the same lock(s) end up on a single FIFO queue.
Note that the scope of inode locks is intentionally global, i.e. when
an inode is locked, it locks every inode with the same number in every
subvol. This avoids significant lock contention and task queue growth
when the same inode with the same file extents appear in snapshots.

Split crawlers into two separate Tasks:
1. a Task which locates the next inode with a new data extent.
2. a Task which scans every new extent in that inode.
This simplifies some lock contention and execution ordering issues.
Files are read sequentially. Workers dynamically scale up or
down as needed, without creating thousands of deferred Task objects.
Workers obtain inode locks for different inodes in btrfs, so they
can work in parallel instead of waiting for each other.
This change in behavior comes with new names for the worker Tasks:
"crawl_master" is now "crawl_more", the singular Task which
creates inode-scanning Tasks.
"crawl_<subvol>" is now "crawl_<subvol>_<inode>".

Quite often bees exceeds its service timeout for termination because
it is waiting for a loop embedded in a Task to finish some long-running
btrfs operation. This can cause bees to be aborted by SIGKILL before
it can completely flush the hash table or save crawl state.
There are only two important things SIGTERM does when bees terminates:
1. Save crawl progress
2. Flush out the hash table
Everything else is automatically handled by the kernel when the process
is terminated by SIGKILL, so we don't have to bother doing it ourselves.
This can save considerable time at shutdown since we don't have to wait
for every thread to reach a point where it becomes idle, or force loops
to terminate by throwing exceptions, or check a condition every time we
access a pointer. Instead, we need do only the things in the list
above, and then call _exit() to clean up everything else.
Hash table and crawl state writeback can happen in their background
threads instead of the foreground one. Separate the "stop" method for
these classes into "stop_request" and "stop_wait" so that these writebacks
can run at the same time.
Deprecate and remove all references to the BeesHalt exception, and remove
several unnecessary checks for BeesContext::stop_requested.
Pause the task queue instead of cancelling it, which preserves the
crawl progress state and stops new Tasks from competing for iops and
CPU during writeback.

In current kernels there is a bug which leads to an infinite loop in
add_all_parents(). The bug is triggered by one thread running dedupe
while another runs logical_ino.

bees_sync() was an exception-trapping wrapper around fsync() which is
not needed in any of the contexts from which it was called:
1. dedupe operations implicitly flush the src data, so there is
no need to call fsync() to do that twice.
2. crawl position is written to a temporary file and renamed
over the original, which always forces a flush when the original
exists. On the first write, where there is no original, a
crash would result in starting over with an empty or hole-filled
beescrawl file, which is the initial state of bees. There is also
a long history of kernel bugs triggered by fsync() in this case.
3. we use unreadahead to trigger writeback for flushing the
hash table to persistent storage. Here is a space where we might
use fsync after all, as part of bees_unreadahead's emulation of
POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED, but we need to get read-once behavior from
the scanner before we can use this capability.

If there's an error while writing the crawl state, the state should
remain dirty. If the crawl state is successfully written, the state
is only clean if there were no changes to crawl state since the write
was committed. We need to release the lock while writing the state but
correctly set the dirty flag when the state is written successfully.
Replace the bool with a version number counter. Track the last version
successfully saved and the current version of the crawl state. The state
is dirty if these counters disagree and clean if they agree.

the allocation happens early in startup when most memory allocations
