Hi,

This is v2 of "btrfs-progs as a library".

Most of the changes since v1 are small:

- Rebased onto v4.15
- Split up btrfs_util_subvolume_path() which was accidentally squashed together
  with the commit adding btrfs_util_create_subvolume()
- Renamed btrfs_util_f_* functions to btrfs_util_*_fd for clarity
- Added -fvisibility=hidden and a macro for
  __attribute__((visibility("default")))
- Changed to use semantic versioning
- Fixed missing install of btrfsutil.h
- Documented functions which require root or are non-atomic
- Added a missing license to setup.py

The bigger change is in the last two patches. Dave requested that I get
rid of the runtime dependency of libbtrfsutil from libbtrfs. The easiest
way to do this was to remove the btrfs_list_subvols_print()
implementation from libbtrfs and put it in cmds-subvolume.c (details in
patch 26). I'm open to alternatives.

Please share feedback, thanks!

Cover letter from v1:

One of the features requests I get most often is a library to do the
sorts of operations that we do with btrfs-progs. We can shell out to
btrfs-progs, but the output format isn't always easily parsasble, and
shelling out isn't always ideal. There's libbtrfs, but it's very
incomplete, doesn't have a well thought out API, and is licensed under
the GPL, making it hard to use for many projects.

libbtrfsutil is a new library written from scratch to address these
issues. The implementation is completely independent of the existing
btrfs-progs code, including kerncompat.h, and has a clean API and naming
scheme. It is licensed under the LGPL. It also includes Python bindings
by default. I will maintain the library code.

Patch 1 is a preparation cleanup which can go in independently. Patch 2
adds the build system stuff for the library, and patch 3 does the same
for the Python bindings. Patches 4-14 implement the library helpers,
currently subvolume helpers and the sync ioctls. Patches 15-26 replace
the btrfs-progs and libbtrfs code to use libbtrfsutil instead. I took
care to preserve backwards-compatibility. `btrfs subvol list` in
particular had some buggy behaviors for -o and -a that I emulated in the
new code, see the comments in the code.

These patches are also available on my GitHub:
https://github.com/osandov/btrfs-progs/tree/libbtrfsutil. That branch
will rebase as I update this series.
