Btrfs: fix send failure when root has deleted files still open

The more common use case of send involves creating a RO snapshot and then
use it for a send operation. In this case it's not possible to have inodes
in the snapshot that have a link count of zero (inode with an orphan item)
since during snapshot creation we do the orphan cleanup. However, other
less common use cases for send can end up seeing inodes with a link count
of zero and in this case the send operation fails with a ENOENT error
because any attempt to generate a path for the inode, with the purpose
of creating it or updating it at the receiver, fails since there are no
inode reference items. One use case it to use a regular subvolume for
a send operation after turning it to RO mode or turning a RW snapshot
into RO mode and then using it for a send operation. In both cases, if a
file gets all its hard links deleted while there is an open file
descriptor before turning the subvolume/snapshot into RO mode, the send
operation will encounter an inode with a link count of zero and then
fail with errno ENOENT.

Example using a full send with a subvolume:

  $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb
  $ mount /dev/sdb /mnt

  $ btrfs subvolume create /mnt/sv1
  $ touch /mnt/sv1/foo
  $ touch /mnt/sv1/bar

  # keep an open file descriptor on file bar
  $ exec 73</mnt/sv1/bar
  $ unlink /mnt/sv1/bar

  # Turn the subvolume to RO mode and use it for a full send, while
  # holding the open file descriptor.
  $ btrfs property set /mnt/sv1 ro true

  $ btrfs send -f /tmp/full.send /mnt/sv1
  At subvol /mnt/sv1
  ERROR: send ioctl failed with -2: No such file or directory

Example using an incremental send with snapshots:

  $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb
  $ mount /dev/sdb /mnt

  $ btrfs subvolume create /mnt/sv1
  $ touch /mnt/sv1/foo
  $ touch /mnt/sv1/bar

  $ btrfs subvolume snapshot -r /mnt/sv1 /mnt/snap1

  $ echo "hello world" >> /mnt/sv1/bar

  $ btrfs subvolume snapshot -r /mnt/sv1 /mnt/snap2

  # Turn the second snapshot to RW mode and delete file foo while
  # holding an open file descriptor on it.
  $ btrfs property set /mnt/snap2 ro false
  $ exec 73</mnt/snap2/foo
  $ unlink /mnt/snap2/foo

  # Set the second snapshot back to RO mode and do an incremental send.
  $ btrfs property set /mnt/snap2 ro true

  $ btrfs send -f /tmp/inc.send -p /mnt/snap1 /mnt/snap2
  At subvol /mnt/snap2
  ERROR: send ioctl failed with -2: No such file or directory

So fix this by ignoring inodes with a link count of zero if we are either
doing a full send or if they do not exist in the parent snapshot (they
are new in the send snapshot), and unlink all paths found in the parent
snapshot when doing an incremental send (and ignoring all other inode
items, such as xattrs and extents).

A test case for fstests follows soon.
