Btrfs: don't clean old snapshots on sync(1)

Cleaning old snapshots can make sync(1) somewhat slow, and some users
and applications still use it in a global fsync kind of workload.

This patch changes btrfs not to clean old snapshots during sync, which is
safe from a FS consistency point of view.  The major downside is that it
makes it difficult to tell when old snapshots have been reaped and
the space they were using has been reclaimed.  A new ioctl will be added
for this purpose instead.
