btrfs: Add a helper try_merge_free_space()

When adding a new extent, we'll firstly see if we can merge
this extent to the left or/and right extent. Extract this as
a helper try_merge_free_space().

As a side effect, we fix a small bug that if the new extent
has non-bitmap left entry but is unmergeble, we'll directly
link the extent without trying to drop it into bitmap.

This also prepares for the next patch.
