Btrfs: Find and remove dead roots the first time a root is loaded.

Browse source 
Dead roots are trees left over after a crash, and they were either in the
process of being removed or were waiting to be removed when the box crashed.
Before, a search of the entire tree of root pointers was done on mount
looking for dead roots.  Now, the search is done the first time we load
a root.

This makes mount faster when there are a large number of snapshots, and it
enables the block accounting code to properly update the block counts on
the latest root as old versions of the root are reaped after a crash.
