To get _require_btrfs_corrupt_block. I can move that in here, as it
doesn't have any non-verity use case in btrfs tests yet. But it should
probably stay a named function rather than get rolled into
require_fsverity_corruption if I make btrfs/290 use it directly (which I
think is a good suggestion).

My intent was for it to be a requirement for _fsv_scratch_corrupt_bytes
and _fsv_scratch_corrupt_merkle_tree, but I missed 576, since I was
testing with btrfs and that doesn't have transparent encryption. Apologies
for missing that test. I'll make _require_fsverity_corruption 1:1 with
_fsv_scratch_corrupt_bytes. However, I believe I still need
btrfs_corrupt_block here, since that is part of the "generic" corruption
for btrfs.
