Though it is a simple modification, it changes the existing send
protocol.

The unpatched receiver would fail (it has a lower value of
__BTRFS_SEND_C_MAX), so it could work even without revving the protocol.
But, it's not the cleanest way.

There's a number of defficiencies found in v1 protocol, see
https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Design_notes_on_Send/Receive#Send_stream_v2_draft

I would rather see a proper v2 revision instead of relying on the fact
that current implementation will deal with the change.
