bcachefs: Be more careful about JOURNAL_RES_GET_RESERVED

Browse source 
JOURNAL_RES_GET_RESERVED should only be used for updatse that need to be
done to free up space in the journal. In particular, when we're flushing
keys from the key cache, if we're flushing them out of order we
shouldn't be using it, since we're using up our remaining space in the
journal without dropping a pin that will let us make forward progress.

With this patch, BTREE_INSERT_JOURNAL_RECLAIM without
BTREE_INSERT_JOURNAL_RESERVED may return -EAGAIN - we can't wait on
journal reclaim if we're already in journal reclaim.

This means we need to propagate these errors up to journal reclaim,
indicating that flushing a journal pin should be retried in the future.

This is prep work for a patch to change the way journal reclaim works,
to split out flushing key cache keys because the btree key cache is too
dirty from journal reclaim because we need space in the journal.
