Subject: [PATCH 6/6] libext2fs: try to roll back when splitting an extent fails

If a client asks us to remap a block in the middle of an extent, we
potentially have to allocate a fair number of blocks to handle extent
tree splits.  A failure in either of the ext2fs_extent_insert calls
leaves us with an extent tree that no longer maps the logical block in
question and everything that came after it!  Therefore, try to roll
back the extent tree changes before returning an error code.
