Subject: [PATCH v2 3/4] printk/btrfs: Handle more message headers

The commit 4bcc595ccd80decb4245096e ("printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for
printing continuation lines") allows to define more message headers
for a single message. The motivation is that continuous lines might
get mixed. Therefore it make sense to define the right log level
for every piece of a cont line.

The current btrfs_printk() macros do not support continuous lines
at the moment. But better be prepared for a custom messages and
avoid potential "lvl" buffer overflow.

This patch iterates over the entire message header. It is interested
only into the message level like the original code.

This patch also introduces PRINTK_MAX_SINGLE_HEADER_LEN. Three bytes
are enough for the message level header at the moment. But it used to
be three, see the commit 04d2c8c83d0e3ac5f ("printk: convert the format
for KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte pattern").

Also I fixed the default ratelimit level. It looked very strange
when it was different from the default log level.
