btrfs: record new subvolume in parent dir earlier to avoid dir logging races 



Instead of recording that a new subvolume was created in a directory after
we add the entry do the directory, record it before adding the entry. This
is to avoid races where after creating the entry and before recording the
new subvolume in the directory (the call to btrfs_record_new_subvolume()),
another task logs the directory, so we end up with a log tree where we
logged a directory that has an entry pointing to a root that was not yet
committed, resulting in an invalid entry if the log is persisted and
replayed later due to a power failure or crash.

Also state this requirement in the function comment for
btrfs_record_new_subvolume(), similar to what we do for the
btrfs_record_unlink_dir() and btrfs_record_snapshot_destroy().
