Btrfs: Add mount -o compress-force
The default btrfs mount -o compress mode will quickly back off compressing a file if it notices that compression does not reduce the size of the data being written. This can save considerable CPU because all future writes to the file go through uncompressed. But some files are both very large and have mixed data stored in them. In that case, we want to add the ability to always try compressing data before writing it. This commit adds mount -o compress-force. A later commit will add a new inode flag that does the same thing.
