btrfs: add and use helpers for reading and writing log_transid

Currently the log_transid field of a root is always modified while holding
the root's log_mutex locked. Most readers of a root's log_transid are also
holding the root's log_mutex locked, however there is one exception which
is btrfs_set_inode_last_trans() where we don't take the lock to avoid
blocking several operations if log syncing is happening in parallel.

Any races here should be harmless, and in the worst case they may cause a
fsync to log an inode when it's not really needed, so nothing bad from a
functional perspective.

To avoid data race warnings from tools like KCSAN and other issues such
as load and store tearing (amongst others, see [1]), create helpers to
access the log_transid field of a root using READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE(),
and use these helpers where needed.
