Btrfs: fix race between balance and unused block group deletion

We have a race between deleting an unused block group and balancing the
same block group that leads to an assertion failure/BUG(), producing the
following trace:

The sequence of steps leading to this are:

           CPU 0                                         CPU 1

  btrfs_balance()
    btrfs_relocate_chunk()

      btrfs_relocate_block_group(bg X)
        btrfs_lookup_block_group(bg X)

                                               cleaner_kthread
                                                  locks fs_info->cleaner_mutex

                                                  btrfs_delete_unused_bgs()
                                                    finds bg X, which became
                                                    unused in the previous
                                                    transaction

                                                    checks bg X ->ro == 0,
                                                    so it proceeds
        sets bg X ->ro to 1
        (btrfs_set_block_group_ro(bg X))

        blocks on fs_info->cleaner_mutex
                                                    btrfs_remove_chunk(bg X)
                                                  unlocks fs_info->cleaner_mutex

        acquires fs_info->cleaner_mutex
        relocate_block_group()
          --> does nothing, no extents found in
              the extent tree from bg X
        unlocks fs_info->cleaner_mutex

      btrfs_relocate_block_group(bg X) returns

    btrfs_remove_chunk(bg X)
       extent map not found
          --> ASSERT(0)

Fix this by using a new mutex to make sure these 2 operations, block
group relocation and removal, are serialized.

This issue is reproducible by running fstests generic/038 (which stresses
chunk allocation and automatic removal of unused block groups) together
with the following balance loop:

    while true; do btrfs balance start -dusage=0 <mountpoint> ; done
