Btrfs: fix -ENOSPC when finishing block group creation

While creating a block group, we often end up getting ENOSPC while updating
the chunk tree, which leads to a transaction abortion that produces a trace
like the following:

This is because we don't do proper space reservation for the chunk block
reserve when we have multiple tasks allocating chunks in parallel.

So block group creation has 2 phases, and the first phase essentially
checks if there is enough space in the system space_info, allocating a
new system chunk if there isn't, while the second phase updates the
device, extent and chunk trees. However, because the updates to the
chunk tree happen in the second phase, if we have N tasks, each with
its own transaction handle, allocating new chunks in parallel and if
there is only enough space in the system space_info to allocate M chunks,
where M < N, none of the tasks ends up allocating a new system chunk in
the first phase and N - M tasks will get -ENOSPC when attempting to
update the chunk tree in phase 2 if they need to COW any nodes/leafs
from the chunk tree.

Fix this by doing proper reservation in the chunk block reserve.

The issue could be reproduced by running fstests generic/038 in a loop,
which eventually triggered the problem.
