[PATCH] common/defrag: rework _require_defrag for ext4

[Eric Whitney <enwlinux@gmail.com>]

The existing _require_defrag function rejects ext4 file systems
mounted with the dax option or constructed without extents.  However,
there are also a number of other ext4 file system configuration cases
that do not currently support online defrag, including encryption, data
journaling, and bigalloc.  In the future, online defrag functionality
may be implemented for some of these, and new configuration cases
could be added that don't support it.

Rather than add a laundry list of mount and file system configuration
options to the existing _require_defrag function that will need ongoing
maintenance, use the available src/e4compact program to directly
determine whether the kernel supports ext4's move extent ioctl on the
test file system.
