Btrfs: allow balance to explicitly allocate chunks as it relocates

Btrfs device shrinking and balancing ends up reallocating all the blocks
in order to allow COW to move them to new destinations.  It is somewhat
awkward in terms of ENOSPC because most of the enospc code is built
around the idea that some operation on a reference counted tree triggers
allocations in the non-reference counted trees.

This commit changes the balancing code to deal with enospc by trying to
allocate a new chunk.  If that allocation succeeds, we go ahead and
retry whatever failed due to enospc.
