btrfs: remove extent writepage address space operation

Browse Source 
Same as in commit 21b4ee7029 ("xfs: drop ->writepage completely"): we
can remove the callback as it's only used in one place - single page
writeback from memory reclaim and is not called for cgroup writeback at
all.

We only allow such writeback from kswapd, not from direct memory
reclaim, and so it is rarely used. When it comes from kswapd, it is
effectively random dirty page shoot-down, which is horrible for IO
patterns. We can rely on background writeback to clean all dirty pages
in an efficient way and not let it be interrupted by kswapd.
