Add sensitivity / heed warnings re a quota disabled state (often only displayed for a short period and accompanied by otherwise normal quota enabled behaviour) and additionally make our 'btrfs qgroup assign' wrapper fail elegantly in this interim / indeterminate quota state.
Addressed issue could in rare situations also block share creation.
Summary:
Fixes #1987
See issue text for more context.
@schakrava Ready for review.
Testing:
During unrelated Rockstor development on docker-ce a larger number of docker service enable / disable cycles were performed. This is suspected as the cause for a then persistent indeterminate quota state that blocked further share creation. See issue:
"docker-ce dictating pool quota enabled disabled status" #1906
for buggy docker-ce btrfs quota interaction.
It was then also noticed that importing certain prior quota disabled pools failed in a related manner.
Post pr the remaining reproducer examples behaved as expected, ie share creation was fixed and imports were successful in the respective instances.
