Currently mkfs creates a few block-groups to bootstrap the filesystem.
Along with these block-groups some free-space-infos are created. When
the block-group cleanup happens the block-groups are deleted and the
free-space-infos are not. This patch set introduces a fix that deletes
the free-space-infos when the block-groups are deleted.

When implementing a test for my changes I found that there was already
some code in free-space-tree.c that attempts to verify that all
free-space-infos correspond to a block-group. This code only checks if
there exists a block-group that has an objectid >= free-space-info's
objectid. I added an additional check to make sure that the block-group
actually matches the free-space-info's objectid and offset.

Making this change to fsck will cause all filesystems that were created
using mkfs.btrfs to warn that there is some free-space-info that doesn't
correspond to a block-group. I've softened the language and included
instructions on how to fix the issue.

CHANGELOG:
v3:
- Added patch 3/3 to add free-space-info checking in tree-checker.
- Softened the warning in patch 2/3
