The sed filters for test outputs that are used to remove build and
test specific information (such as version strings, dates, times,
UUIDs) were unconditionally deleting the first line of output. This
would normally contain the tool version string, but in some cases
contained other information that was being lost. This can lead to
difficulty debugging test failures.
The sed filtering has been changed to only remove the actual version
strings. As well, similar filter strings were duplicated throughout
many scripts, and "sed" and "tr" were often called multiple times in
a pipeline. These have been consolidated into a single filter.sed
file to avoid having to maintain these filters in multiple places.
In a few cases, accidentally deleted messages have been restored to
the expect output for the tests. In other cases, trivial whitespace
has been changed in the expect files.

If e2fsprogs tools (mke2fs, e2fsck) is run on regular file instead of
on block device, we can use punch hole instead of regular discard
command which would not work on regular file anyway. This gives us
several advantages. First of all when e2fsck is run with '-E discard'
parameter it will punch out all ununsed space from the image, hence
trimming down the file system image. And secondly, when creating an
file system on regular file (with '-E discard' which is default), we
can use punch hole to clear the file content, hence we can skip inode
table initialization, because reads from sparse area returns zeros. This
will result in faster file system creation (without the need to specify
lazy_itable_init) and smaller images.
This commit also fixes some tests that would fail due to mke2fs showing
discard progress, hence the output would differ.

m_raid_opt: New test case to test raid striping
m_large_file: Fix description
run_e2fsck, run_mke2fs, filter_dumpe2fs: Add dumpe2fs output to
the test output for comparison. Add support for
compressed expect scripts.
Mke2fs has been modified to honor the MKE2FS_SKIP_PROGRESS,
MKE2FS_DEVICE_SECTSIZE, and MKE2FS_SKIP_CHECK_MSG in order
facilitate the regression testing.
