Btrfs: Allow worker threads to exit when idle
The Btrfs worker threads don't currently die off after they have been idle for a while, leading to a lot of threads sitting around doing nothing for each mount. Also, they are unable to start atomically (from end_io hanlders). This commit reworks the worker threads so they can be started from end_io handlers (just setting a flag that asks for a thread to be added at a later date) and so they can exit if they have been idle for a long time.
