[f2fs-dev][RFC PATCH 07/10] f2fs: add a mount option for rb-tree extent cache

[Chao Yu]

This patch adds a mount option 'extent_cache' in f2fs.

It is try to use a rb-tree based extent cache to cache more mapping information
with less memory if this option is set, otherwise we will use the original one
extent info cache.
