Btrfs-progs: fix wrong manpage of defrag command

'btrfs filesystem defrag' has an option '-t', whose manpage says

"Any extent bigger than threshold given by -t option, will be
considered already defragged. Use 0 to take the kernel default, and
use 1 to say every single extent must be rewritten."

Here 'use 0' still works, it refers to the default value(256K), however,
'use 1' is an obvious typo, it should be -1, which means the largest value
it can be.

Right now, we use parse_size() which no more allow value '-1', so in
order to keep the manpage correct, this updates it to only keep value '0'.

If you want to make sure every single extent is rewritten, please use a fairly
large size, say 1G.
