Btrfs-progs: Fix manual of btrfs command 

Usage of balancing btrfs is "btrfs filesystem balance",
not "btrfs device balance". And remove unneeded
usage of "btrfs filesystem defrag".
Also fix some typos and over 80 columns.

Defragment file data and/or directory metadata. To defragment all files in a
directory you have to specify each one on its own or use your shell wildcards.
The start position and the number of bytes to deframention can be specified by \fIstart\fR and \fIlen\fR. Any extent bigger than \fIthresh\fR will be considered already defragged. Use 0 to take the kernel default, and use 1 to say eveery single extent must be rewritten. You can also turn on compression in defragment operations.
