lxc-destroy fails on btrfs subvolumes

This also occurs for limited user containers, without asking for a btrfs backing store. This is more of a problem as the limited user can't delete (or even detect) the subvolume themselves.

On a standard whole-partition-as-btrfs system, as setup by the installer, this looks like:
ID 257 gen 46021 top level 5 path @
ID 258 gen 46021 top level 5 path @home
...
ID 373 gen 35464 top level 257 path @/var/lib/machines
ID 374 gen 45983 top level 258 path faux/.local/share/lxc/vivid/rootfs/var/lib/machines
ID 395 gen 45995 top level 258 path faux/.local/share/lxc/vivid2/rootfs/var/lib/machines
ID 396 gen 46011 top level 258 path faux/.local/share/lxc/vivid3/rootfs/var/lib/machines
ID 397 gen 46014 top level 258 path faux/.local/share/lxc/vivid4/rootfs/var/lib/machines

This is fixed in upstream git HEAD, so you can get the fix from
ppa:ubuntu-lxc/daily. It should hopefully make its way into the
vivid package soon.
