xfs: fix the rtrmap and rtrefcount _maxlevels_ondisk functions
The _maxlevels_ondisk functions are used to compute the size of
in-memory btree cursors for each btree type. Unfortunately, LOLLM
noticed that the rtrmap and rtrefcount versions of these functions
forget to account for the inode root, which means that we could access
beyond the end of the cursor given a sufficiently large btree. Fix
this.
