Subject: [PATCH 0/4][e2fsprogs] Enable FLEX_BG support

The following series of patches add support creating and checking
filesystems with the FLEX_BG feature.  This feature currently groups
meta-data from a series of groups at the beginning of a flex group in
order to improve performance during heavy meta-data operations.

Some light testing on meta-data filesystem and fsck times already show
some improvements.

This is still very experimental code I meant mostly as a prototype, but
comments are welcome.
