PATCH 1/1 btrfs-progs: fsck: Continue check even if we find space cache problem

Space cache itself is not a fatal part of btrfs (especially for v1 space cache), and if we find something wrong it can be caused by other more serious problem.

So continue to check more important trees even we found something wrong in free space cache.
