btrfs: try to reclaim some space when chunk allocation fails

We cannot write data into files when when there is tiny space in the filesystem.

Reproduce steps:
 # mkfs.btrfs /dev/sda1
 # mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
 # dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/tmpfile0 bs=4K count=1
 # dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/tmpfile1 bs=4K count=99999999999999
   (fill the filesystem)
 # umount /mnt
 # mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
 # rm -f /mnt/tmpfile0
 # dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/tmpfile0 bs=4K count=1
   (failed with nospec)

But if we do the last step again, we can write data successfully. The reason of
the problem is that btrfs didn't try to commit the current transaction and
reclaim some space when chunk allocation failed.

This patch fixes it by committing the current transaction to reclaim some
space when chunk allocation fails.
