ext4: add ext4_group_t, and change all group variables to this type.
In many places variables for block group are of type int, which limits the
maximum number of block groups to 2^31. Each block group can have up to
2^15 blocks, with a 4K block size, and the max filesystem size is limited to
2^31 * (2^15 * 2^12) = 2^58 -- or 256 PB
This patch introduces a new type ext4_group_t, of type unsigned long, to
represent block group numbers in ext4.
All occurrences of block group variables are converted to type ext4_group_t.
