'GPL-2.0-only' is used instead of 'GPL-2.0' because SPDX has
deprecated its use.

When we break sharing on btree nodes we typically need to increment
the reference counts to every value held in the node. This can
cause a lot of repeated calls to the space maps. Fix this by changing
the interface to the space map inc/dec methods to take ranges of
adjacent blocks to be operated on.
For installations that are using a lot of snapshots this will reduce
cpu overhead of fundamental operations such as provisioning a new block,
or deleting a snapshot, by as much as 10 times.

Add a threshold callback function to the persistent data space map
interface for a subsequent patch to use.
dm-thin and dm-cache are interested in knowing when they're getting
low on metadata or data blocks. This patch introduces a new method
for registering a callback against a threshold.

The persistent-data library offers a re-usable framework for the storage
and management of on-disk metadata in device-mapper targets.
It's used by the thin-provisioning target in the next patch and in an
upcoming hierarchical storage target.
