This patch changes "subvol set-default" to also accept the subvolume path
for convenience.

This is the one of the issue on github: 
https://github.com/kdave/btrfs-progs/issues/35

If there are two args, they are assumed as subvol id and path to the fs
(the same as current behavior), and if there is only one arg, it is assumed
as the path to the subvolume. Therefore there is no ambiguity between subvol
id and subvol name, which is mentioned in the above issue page.

Only the absolute path to the subvolume is allowed, for the safety when
multiple filesystems are used.

subvol id is resolved by get_subvol_info() which is used by "subvol show".

change to v2:
restrict the path to only allow absolute path.
documents are updated accordingly.

This is absolutely arbitrary restriction. Why we can do "btrfs
subvolume create ./relative/path" but cannot do "btrfs subvolume
set-default ./relative/path"?

   Indeed. In fact, it's precisely the _opposite_ of the way that
every other command works -- you provide the path to the subvolume in
the *current namespace*.

   This approach would be just a major misfeature at this point.

I agree with Andrei and Hugo. We need to check that the subvolume path
belongs to the filesystem anyway. I don't see that in the first version,
so please fix it.

I'm a bit confusing, but what is the meaning of "We need to check that the subvolume
path belongs to the filesystem"? Do you mean we should check whether the fs of current
directory and the fs of the subvolume specified are the same or not? However, current 
"set-default <id> <path>" does not check the <path> belong the same fs or not either.
Also, what if the subvolume is specified by absolute path?

Ah my bad, specifying by path is enough of course. So the expected use
is:

filesystem mounted under /mnt

$ cd /mnt
$ btrfs subvol set-default ./subvol1

or 

$ cd /
$ btrfs subvol set-default /mnt/subvol1
