btrfs: avoid unnecessary computation when deleting items from a leaf

When deleting items from a leaf, we always compute the sum of the data
sizes of the items that are going to be deleted. However we only use
that sum when the last item to delete is behind the last item in the
leaf. This unnecessarily wastes CPU time when we are deleting either
the whole leaf or from some slot > 0 up to the last item in the leaf,
and both of these cases are common (e.g. truncation operation, either
as a result of truncate(2) or when logging inodes, deleting checksums
after removing a large enough extent, etc).

So compute only the sum of the data sizes if the last item to be
deleted does not match the last item in the leaf.

This change if part of a patchset that is comprised of the following
patches:

  1/6 btrfs: remove unnecessary leaf free space checks when pushing items
  2/6 btrfs: avoid unnecessary COW of leaves when deleting items from a leaf
  3/6 btrfs: avoid unnecessary computation when deleting items from a leaf
  4/6 btrfs: remove constraint on number of visited leaves when replacing extents
  5/6 btrfs: remove useless path release in the fast fsync path
  6/6 btrfs: prepare extents to be logged before locking a log tree path

The last patch in the series has some performance test result in its
changelog.
