lockdep: lockdep_set_notrack_class()

Add a new helper to disable lockdep tracking entirely for a given class.

This is needed for bcachefs, which takes too many btree node locks for
lockdep to track. Instead, we have a single lockdep_map for "btree_trans
has any btree nodes locked", which makes more since given that we have
centralized lock management and a cycle detector.
