btrfs: Document __etree_search

The function has a lot of return values and specific conventions making
it cumbersome to understand what's returned. Have a go at documenting
its parameters and return values.

* __etree_search - searche @tree for an entry that contains @offset. Such

* @tree - the tree to search
* @offset - offset that should fall within an entry in @tree
* @next_ret - pointer to the first entry whose range ends after @offset
* @prev - pointer to the first entry whose range begins before @offset

*
* This function returns a pointer to the entry that contains @offset byte
* address. If no such entry exists, then NULL is returned and the other
* pointer arguments to the function are filled, otherwise the found entry is
* returned and other pointers are left untouched.
