Btrfs: don't read leaf blocks containing only checksums during truncate
Checksum items take up a significant portion of the metadata for large files.
It is possible to avoid reading them during truncates by checking the keys in
the higher level nodes.
If a given leaf is followed by another leaf where the lowest key is a checksum
item from the same file, we know we can safely delete the leaf without
reading it.
For a 32GB file on a 6 drive raid0 array, Btrfs needs 8s to delete
the file with a cold cache. It is read bound during the run.
With this change, Btrfs is able to delete the file in 0.5s
