Spit out just the group descriptor data in a machine readable format.
This is most useful for testing and scripting purposes.

The e2fsprogs programs have historically just said that they operate
on ext2 and ext3 file system in their man pages. Update them to say
that they also operate on ext4 file systems.

The dumpe2fs syntax documented in the man page has been broken for
some time due to getopt() changes. Change the option syntax in
dumpe2fs to be one which is more extensible and consistent with the
format for extended options in mke2fs and tune2fs.

dumpe2fs.c (main): Add new flag, -i, which will allow dumpe2fs to dump
out the filesystem statistics from an ext2 image file.
Many files:
e2image.8.in: New manual page
badblocks.8.in, e2label.8.in, mke2fs.8.in mklost+found.8.in,
tune2fs.8.in: Update location of e2fsprogs to be
http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net.
dumpe2fs.c (usage): add fhx options to usage message, add -x option to
print out the per-group block numbers in hex, add line for location of
primary/backup superblock and group descriptors
mke2fs.c: rename max to group_blk_max avoid potential macro conflict
badblocks.8.in, chattr.1.in, dumpe2fs.8.in, e2label.8.in,
fsck.8.in, lsattr.1.in, mke2fs.8.in, mklost+found.8.in,
tune2fs.8.in, uuidgen.1.in: Update man page to use a more standard
format (bold option flags and italicized variables), as suggested by
Andreas Dilger (adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca)
ChangeLog, e2fsck.8.in:
e2fsck.8.in: Update man page to use a more standard format (bold
option flags and italicized variables), as suggested by Andreas Dilger
(adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca)
ChangeLog, uuid_generate.3.in:

(bold option flags and italicized variables), as suggested by Andreas
Dilger (adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca)
partinfo.c: Fix minor compilation bugs pointed out by Yann Dirson.
mke2fs.c: Don't turn on sparse superblocks by default on pre-2.2 kernels.
mke2fs.8.in: Add the possible valid block sizes for mke2fs. Document
the -n flag, and the new defaults for the -s flag.
dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Add new options -f (force) and -h (header-only).
mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix logic for turning on/off the sparse superblock option.
Many files:
Updated copyright statements to reflect the GPL with permission of the
original authors.
dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Added new command-line options which allow
a filesystem expert to specify the superblock and blocksize when
opening a filesystem. This is mainly useful when examining the
remains of a toasted filesystem.
e2label.c: Fix -Wall warning by making functions static.
chattr.1.in: Document that the append-only attribute may only be set
or cleared by the superuser.
Update all manual pages to that the availability section is
up-to-date.
e2label.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to state that labels
must be no longer than 16 characters, or they will be truncated.
e2label.c (change_label), tune2fs.c (main): If the label is longer
than 16 characters, print a warning message stating that the label
will be truncated.
mke2fs.c (PRS): If the user specifies a filesystem size, and it's
larger than the apparent size of the device, print a warning message
and ask if the user wants to proceed.
