[PATCHSET,v24.0,0/1] fstests: online repair of rmap btrees

Hi all,

We have now constructed the four tools that we need to scan the
filesystem looking for reverse mappings: an inode scanner, hooks to
receive live updates from other writer threads, the ability to construct
btrees in memory, and a btree bulk loader.

This series glues those three together, enabling us to scan the
filesystem for mappings and keep it up to date while other writers run,
and then commit the new btree to disk atomically.

To reduce the size of each patch, the functionality is left disabled
until the end of the series and broken up into three patches: one to
create the mechanics of scanning the filesystem, a second to transition
to in-memory btrees, and a third to set up the live hooks.

If you're going to start using this mess, you probably ought to just
pull from my git trees, which are linked below.

This is an extraordinary way to destroy everything.  Enjoy!
Comments and questions are, as always, welcome.
