btrfs: use blocksize to check if compression is making things larger
[BEHAVIOR DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COMPRESSION ALGOS] Currently LZO compression algorithm will check if we're making the compressed data larger after compressing more than 2 blocks. But zlib and zstd do the same checks after compressing more than 8192 bytes. This is not a big deal, but since we're already supporting larger block size (e.g. 64K block size if page size is also 64K), this check is not suitable for all block sizes. For example, if our page and block size are both 16KiB, and after the first block compressed using zlib, the resulted compressed data is slightly larger than 16KiB, we will immediately abort the compression. This makes zstd and zlib compression algorithms to behave slightly different from LZO, which only aborts after compressing two blocks. [ENHANCEMENT] To unify the behavior, only abort the compression after compressing at least two blocks.
