dm space maps: improve performance with inc/dec on ranges of blocks
When we break sharing on btree nodes we typically need to increment the reference counts to every value held in the node. This can cause a lot of repeated calls to the space maps. Fix this by changing the interface to the space map inc/dec methods to take ranges of adjacent blocks to be operated on. For installations that are using a lot of snapshots this will reduce cpu overhead of fundamental operations such as provisioning a new block, or deleting a snapshot, by as much as 10 times.
