xfs: allocate sparse inode chunks on full chunk allocation failure
xfs_ialloc_ag_alloc() makes several attempts to allocate a full inode chunk. If all else fails, reduce the allocation to the sparse length and alignment and attempt to allocate a sparse inode chunk. If sparse chunk allocation succeeds, check whether an inobt record already exists that can track the chunk. If so, inherit and update the existing record. Otherwise, insert a new record for the sparse chunk. Create helpers to align sparse chunk inode records and insert or update existing records in the inode btrees. The xfs_inobt_insert_sprec() helper implements the merge or update semantics required for sparse inode records with respect to both the inobt and finobt. To update the inobt, either insert a new record or merge with an existing record. To update the finobt, use the updated inobt record to either insert or replace an existing record.
