[PATCH] mke2fs: correct help text for option -G of mke2fs

[Yongqiang Yang]

The option '-G' is used to pass number of groups in a flex_bg, the
previous help text - 'meta-group-size' - could confuse users with
meta_bg.

Probably "flex_group_size" or "flex_group_factor" is as clear and a lot shorter. 

Cheers, Andreas
