v1->v1.1:
 . Fix typo in HELPINFO_INSERT_QUIET.
 . Remove #include <stdbool.h> where its no more required.
   (was needed when %bconf.verbose was declared as bool).
 . Use pr_verbose(-1,..) instead of all conditions printf()
 . Use pr_verbose(1,..) instead of pr_verbose(true,..)

verbosity sample code as in v1.1

global init
-----------
        bconf.verbose = -1; //-1:default, 0:quiet, >1:verbose

at global options
-----------------
	case 'v':
		bconf.verbose < 0 ? bconf.verbose = 1 : bconf.verbose++;
		break;
	case 'q':
		bconf.verbose = 0;
		break;

sub-command init
----------------
For send/receive only (special cases, default verbosity is 1):

	if (bconf.verbose < 0)
		bconf.verbose = 1;
	else if (bconf.verbose > 0)
		bconf.verbose++;

Non-send/receive:
default verbosity is 0 (ref: cmds/rescue.c)
	if (bconf.verbose < 0)
		bconf.verbose = 0;

at sub-command options
----------------------
	case 'v':
		bconf.verbose++;
		break;
	case 'q':
		bconf.verbose = 0;
		break;


pr_verbose()
------------
/*
 * level -1: prints message unless bconf.verbose == 0;
 * level  0: quiet
 * level >0: prints message only if <= bconf.verbose
 */
void pr_verbose(int level, const char *fmt, ...)
{
        va_list args;

        if (level == 0 || bconf.verbose == 0)
                return;

        if (level > bconf.verbose)
                return;

        va_start(args, fmt);
        vfprintf(stdout, fmt, args);
        va_end(args);
}


RFC->v1:
. Adds --quiet option to the global btrfs(8) command.
. Used global struct bconf.
. Refactored pr_verbose(), accepts level (int) as argument, so now the
sub-command can specify the verbose level at which the particular
verbose messages has to be printed.
. Added global help defines.

Kindly note the following:-

1.
 There are certain sub-commands which does not have any verbose output
 or quiet output. However if the global options were used with those
 sub-commands then the command shall not report any usage error. Or
 my question is should it error out.? For example:
  (with the patch) btrfs --verbose device ready /dev/sdb
 actually there isn't any verbose output but we won't error out.
 Similarly,
  (without the patch) btrfs send -vvvvv will not show usage error
  as well.
  So I believe this is fine. IMO.

2.
  There is slight difference in output when global options are used
  as compared to the output using the same sequence of options at the
  sub-command level. For example:

   btrfs send -v -q -v  is-equal-to  btrfs send
   But same sequence in the global option
   btrfs -v -q -v send is-not-equal-to btrfs send
   but is-equal-to btrfs -v send or btrfs send -v.
   (similarly applies to receive as well).

  which IMO is fair expectation as -v is ending last.


RFC:
This patch set brings --verbose option to the top level btrfs command,
such as 'btrfs --verbose'. With this we don't have to add or remember
verbose option at the sub-commands level.

As there are already verbose options to 11 sub-commands as listed
below [1][2]. So the top level --verbose option here takes care to transpire
verbose request from the top level to the sub-command level for 9 (not 11)
sub-commands as in [1] as of now.

This patch is RFC still for the following two reasons (comments appreciated).

1.
The sub-commands as in [2] uses multi-level compile time verbose option,
such as %g_verbose = 0 (quite), %g_verbose = 1 (default), %g_verbose > 1
(real-verbose). And verbose at default is also part the .out files in
fstests. So it needs further discussions on how to handle the multi-
level verbose option using the global verbose option, and so sub-
commands in [2] are untouched.

2.
These patch has been unit-tested individually.
These patches does not alter the verbose output.
But it fixes the indentation in the command's help output, which may be
used in fstests and btrfs-progs/tests and their verification is pending
still, which I am planning to do it before v1.

Please user integer numbers for patch revisions, no need to mark patches
that haven't changed, the overall summary of changes can mention what
changed where if needed.

Are we ever going to call the function with level == 0?

Yes this is fine.

Agreed, hopefully the wild combinations of -v and -q are not too common.

The patchset looks good, though it needs the small fixups like the
global header or the helper macros, the core of the changes is there.
That should be good for 5.4.

The first version merged should bring the support for global verbosity
options, then we can gradually convert all fprintf/printf to the helpers
and add new printfs with higher verbosity levels.

  Ok got it.
  (I kind of didn't want to integer++ unless it fixes review comments).

   Yes. For example in the patch
