Btrfs: ensure readers see new data after a clone operation

We were cleaning the clone target file range from the page cache before
we did replace the file extent items in the fs tree. This was racy,
as right after cleaning the relevant range from the page cache and before
replacing the file extent items, a read against that range could be
performed by another task and populate again the page cache with stale
data (stale after the cloning finishes). This would result in reads after
the clone operation successfully finishes to get old data (and potentially
for a very long time). Therefore evict the pages after replacing the file
extent items, so that subsequent reads will always get the new data.

Similarly, we were prone to races while cloning the file extent items
because we weren't locking the target range and wait for any existing
ordered extents against that range to complete. It was possible that
after cloning the extent items, a write operation that was performed
before the clone operation and overlaps the same range, would end up
undoing all or part of the work the clone operation did (a worker task
running inode.c:btrfs_finish_ordered_io). Therefore lock the target
range in the io tree, wait for all pending ordered extents against that
range to finish and then safely perform the cloning.

The issue of reading stale data after the clone operation is easy to
reproduce by running the following C program in a loop until it exits
with return value 1.
