btrfs: qgroup: simple quota auto hierarchy for nested subvolumes
Consider the following sequence: - enable quotas - create subvol S id 256 at dir outer/ - create a qgroup 1/100 - add 0/256 (S's auto qgroup) to 1/100 - create subvol T id 257 at dir outer/inner/ With full qgroups, there is no relationship between 0/257 and either of 0/256 or 1/100. There is an inherit feature that the creator of inner/ can use to specify it ought to be in 1/100. Simple quotas are targeted at container isolation, where such automatic inheritance for not necessarily trusted/controlled nested subvol creation would be quite helpful. Therefore, add a new default behavior for simple quotas: when you create a nested subvol, automatically inherit as parents any parents of the qgroup of the subvol the new inode is going in. In our example, 257/0 would also be under 1/100, allowing easy control of a total quota over an arbitrary hierarchy of subvolumes. I think this _might_ be a generally useful behavior, so it could be interesting to put it behind a new inheritance flag that simple quotas always use while traditional quotas let the user specify, but this is a minimally intrusive change to start.
