Save space by removing entries from the space map ref_count tree if
they're no longer needed.

Ref counts are stored in two places: a bitmap if the ref_count is
below 3, or a btree of uint32_t if 3 or above.

When a ref_count that was above 3 drops below we can remove it from
the tree and save some metadata space.  This removal was commented out
before because I was unsure why this was causing under-populated btree
nodes.  Earlier patches have fixed this issue.
