btrfs-progs: add ask_user confirmation for btrfstune clear seeding flag 

If we do the following:
	# mkfs.btrfs -f <dev>
	# mount <dev> <mnt>
	# dd if=/dev/urandom of=<mnt>/data bs=1M count=100
	# umount <dev>
	# btrfstune -S 1 <dev> 		<--- make seeding device
	# mount <dev> <mnt>
	# btrfs dev add -f <dev2> <mnt>
	# umount <dev>
	# btrfstune -S 0 <dev>		<--- clear seeding flag
	# mount <dev2> <mnt>		<=== new device not mountable

When mounting the new device, btrfs will check whether
the seeding flag is set when try to open seeding device.
If the user clears the seeding flag of the seeding device,
the new device will not be mountable. Even set the seeding
flag back will not recovery this problem, because the generation
has been changed. So clear the seeding flag has the chance to
damage the derived new fs.

So I add user confirmation check when clearing seeding flag.
