ext4: limit number of scanned extents in status tree shrinker
Currently we scan extent status trees of inodes until we reclaim nr_to_scan extents. This can however require a lot of scanning when there are lots of delayed extents (as those cannot be reclaimed). Change shrinker to work as shrinkers are supposed to and *scan* only nr_to_scan extents regardless of how many extents did we actually reclaim. We however need to be careful and avoid scanning each status tree from the beginning - that could lead to a situation where we would not be able to reclaim anything at all when first nr_to_scan extents in the tree are always unreclaimable. We remember with each inode offset where we stopped scanning and continue from there when we next come across the inode. Note that we also need to update places calling __es_shrink() manually to pass reasonable nr_to_scan to have a chance of reclaiming anything and not just 1.
