Enable users to upgrade their filesystems to support inode btree block
counters.

These two look Ok to me, but I noticed that both commands have weird
error semantics when run through xfs_admin and the associated features
are already set. E.g.:

# xfs_admin -O inobtcount /dev/test/tmp 
Upgrading V5 filesystem
Upgraded V5 filesystem.  Please run xfs_repair.
versionnum [0xb4a5+0x18a] = V5,NLINK,DIRV2,ALIGN,LOGV2,EXTFLG,MOREBITS,ATTR2,LAZYSBCOUNT,PROJID32BIT,CRC,FTYPE,FINOBT,SPARSE_INODES,REFLINK,INOBTCNT
Running xfs_repair to ensure filesystem consistency.
# xfs_admin -O inobtcount /dev/test/tmp 
inode btree counter feature is already enabled
Running xfs_repair to ensure filesystem consistency.
Conversion failed, is the filesystem unmounted?
# mount /dev/test/tmp /mnt/
# umount /mnt/

So it looks like we run repair again the second time around even though
the bit was already set, which is probably unnecessary, but then also
for some reason report the result as failed.
Hm.  I guess I could define a second exitcode that means "no action
taken", and have xfs_admin exit.
It's not totally clear to me what the expected flow is supposed to be if
a particular feature upgrade fails or is otherwise interrupted partway
through. If the expectation is for the user to rerun the xfs_admin
command, it might be worth making sure that we somehow or another fall
back through to repair when appropriate (whether it be unconditionally,
by checking if NEEDSREPAIR is still set, etc.)..

(I also realized that repair is fixing up some agi metadata in this
case, so my previous thought around a special repair verify mode is
probably not relevant..).
