This relicenses the libbtrfsutil library to LGPLv2.1+ from LGPLv3.
People that have contributed non-trivial changes acknowledged the change
and are listed below.
There's a potential licensing conflict with the 'btrfs' utility that is
GPLv2 and statically links libbtrfsutil, this is not a valid combination
per the compatibility matrix as found in
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#AllCompatibility or
http://gplv3.fsf.org/dd3-faq .
We also have an explicit request to change the license [1] (issue #323)
from LGPLv3 to allow use in environments that don't like GPLv3. Though
the library license is not GPLv3, the full text of the license is in the
repository and the 'lesser' part is an addendum. This was perhaps a bit
confusing, nevertheless this gets clarified as well.

This has been supported since day one, but it wasn't documented.

async became a keyword in Python 3.7, so, e.g., create_subvolume('foo',
async=True) is now a syntax error. Fix it with the Python convention of
adding a trailing underscore to the keyword (async -> async_). This is
what several other Python libraries did to handle this.

We also support recursive deletion using a subvolume iterator.

Thanks to subvolume iterators, we can also implement recursive snapshot
fairly easily.

This is how we can implement stuff like `btrfs subvol list`. Rather than
producing the entire list upfront, the iterator approach uses less
memory in the common case where the whole list is not stored (O(max
subvolume path length)). It supports both pre-order traversal (useful
for, e.g, recursive snapshot) and post-order traversal (useful for
recursive delete).

set_default_subvolume() is a trivial ioctl(), but there's no ioctl() for
get_default_subvolume(), so we need to search the root tree.

In the future, btrfs_util_[gs]et_subvolume_flags() might be useful, but
since these are the only subvolume flags we've defined in all this time,
this will do for now.

This gets the the information in `btrfs subvolume show` from the root
item.

We can just walk up root backrefs with BTRFS_IOC_TREE_SEARCH and inode
paths with BTRFS_IOC_INO_LOOKUP.

Doing the ioctl() directly isn't too bad, but passing in a full path is
more convenient than opening the parent and passing the path component.

These are the most trivial helpers in the library and will be used to
implement several of the more involved functions.

We want to hide struct btrfs_qgroup_inherit from the user because that
comes from the Btrfs UAPI headers. Instead, wrap it in a struct
btrfs_util_qgroup_inherit and provide helpers to manipulate it. This
will be used for subvolume and snapshot creation.

The C libbtrfsutil library isn't very useful for scripting, so we also
want bindings for Python. Writing unit tests in Python is also much
easier than doing so in C. Only Python 3 is supported; if someone really
wants Python 2 support, they can write their own bindings. This commit
is just the scaffolding.
