I'm not sure about Debian. I'd ask your distribution where newer
packages are located.

An alternative is to use a live media from a distribution like Fedora
or Arch, which will have a current btrfs-progs. And just dd the image
to a USB stick and boot it.

I suggest the 2nd download link, which is Fedora 33 beta x64. It has
btrfs-progs 5.7 on it.
