ext4: do not set extents feature from the kernel
We've talked for a while about getting rid of any feature-
setting from the kernel; this gets rid of the code which would
set the INCOMPAT_EXTENTS flag on the first file write when mounted
as ext4[dev].
With this patch, if the extents feature is not already set on disk,
then mounting as ext4 will fall back to noextents with a warning,
and if -o extents is explicitly requested, the mount will fail,
also with warning.
