btrfs: introduce BTRFS_NESTING_SPLIT for split blocks
If we are splitting a leaf/node, we could do something like the following lock(leaf) BTRFS_NESTING_NORMAL lock(left) BTRFS_NESTING_LEFT + BTRFS_NESTING_COW push from leaf -> left reset path to point to left split left allocate new block, lock block BTRFS_NESTING_SPLIT at the new block point we need to have a different nesting level, because we have already used either BTRFS_NESTING_LEFT or BTRFS_NESTING_RIGHT when pushing items from the original leaf into the adjacent leaves.
