Btrfs: fix race between start dirty bg cache writeout and bg deletion

While running xfstests I ran into the following:

[20892.293955] BTRFS: error (device sdg) in write_one_cache_group:3184: errno=-2 No such entry
[20892.297390] BTRFS info (device sdg): forced readonly

This happens because in btrfs_start_dirty_block_groups() we splice the
transaction's list of dirty block groups into a local list and then we
keep extracting the first element of the list without holding the
cache_write_mutex mutex. This means that before we acquire that mutex
the first block group on the list might be removed by a conurrent task
running btrfs_remove_block_group(). So make sure we extract the first
element (and test the list emptyness) while holding that mutex.

Fixes: 1bbc621ef284 ("Btrfs: allow block group cache writeout
                      outside critical section in commit")
