UBIFS: split ubifs_rcvry_gc_commit
Split the 'ubifs_rcvry_gc_commit()' function and introduce a 'grab_empty_leb()'
heler. This cleans 'ubifs_rcvry_gc_commit()' a little and makes it a bit less
of spagetti.
Also, add a commentary which explains why it is crucial to first search for an
empty LEB and then run commit.
