btrfs: add "no file data" flag to btrfs send ioctl
This patch adds the flag, BTRFS_SEND_FLAG_NO_FILE_DATA to the btrfs send
ioctl code. When this flag is set, the btrfs send code will never write file
data into the stream (thus also avoiding expensive reads of that data in the
first place). BTRFS_SEND_C_UPDATE_EXTENT commands will be sent (instead of
BTRFS_SEND_C_WRITE) with an offset, length pair indicating the extent in
question.
This patch does not affect the operation of BTRFS_SEND_C_CLONE commands -
they will continue to be sent when a search finds an appropriate extent to
clone from.
