ext4: make block group checksums use metadata_csum algorithm

metadata_csum supersedes uninit_bg. Convert the ROCOMPAT uninit_bg
flag check to a helper function that covers both, and make the
checksum calculation algorithm use either crc16 or the metadata_csum
chosen algorithm depending on which flag is set. Print a warning if
we try to mount a filesystem with both feature flags set.

ext4: Calculate and verify checksums of extended attribute blocks

Calculate and verify the checksums of extended attribute blocks. This
only applies to separate EA blocks that are pointed to by
inode->i_file_acl (i.e. external EA blocks); the checksum lives in
the EA header.

ext4: calculate and verify checksums of directory leaf blocks

Calculate and verify the checksums for directory leaf blocks
(i.e. blocks that only contain actual directory entries). The
checksum lives in what looks to be an unused directory entry with a 0
name_len at the end of the block. This scheme is not used for
internal htree nodes because the mechanism in place there only costs
one dx_entry, whereas the "empty" directory entry would cost two
dx_entries.

ext4: Calculate and verify checksums for htree nodes

Calculate and verify the checksum for directory index tree (htree)
node blocks. The checksum is stored in the last 4 bytes of the htree
block and requires the dx_entry array to stop 1 dx_entry short of the
end of the block.

ext4: calculate and verify inode checksums

This patch introduces to ext4 the ability to calculate and verify
inode checksums. This requires the use of a new ro compatibility flag
and some accompanying e2fsprogs patches to provide the relevant
features in tune2fs and e2fsck. The inode generation changes have
been integrated into this patch.
