block: improve should_update_child

As it already said in the comment, we don't want to create loops in
parent->child relations. So, when we try to append @to to @c, we should
check that @c is not in @to children subtree, and we should check it
recursively, not only the first level. The patch provides BFS-based
search, to check the relations.

This is needed for further fleecing-hook filter usage: we need to
append it to source, when the hook is already a parent of target, and
source may be in a backing chain of target (fleecing-scheme). So, on
appending, the hook should not became a child (direct or through
children subtree) of the target.
