Constify static data in ext4 that is never (intentionally) modified so
that it is placed in .rodata and benefits from memory protection.

The sysfs file /sys/fs/ext4/features/encryption was present on kernels
compiled with CONFIG_EXT4_FS_ENCRYPTION=n. This was misleading because
such kernels do not actually support ext4 encryption. Therefore, only
provide this file on kernels compiled with CONFIG_EXT4_FS_ENCRYPTION=y.
Note: since the ext4 feature files are all hardcoded to have a contents
of "supported", it really is the presence or absence of the file that is
significant, not the contents (and this change reflects that).

it's not needed for file_operations of inodes located on fs defined
in the hosting module and for file_operations that go into procfs.

Allow the filesystem to store the metadata checksum seed in the
superblock and add an incompat feature to say that we're using it.
This enables tune2fs to change the UUID on a mounted metadata_csum
FS without having to (racy!) rewrite all disk metadata.

This allows us to refactor the procfs code, which saves a bit of
compiled space. More importantly it isolates most of the procfs
support code into a single file, so it's easier to #ifdef it out if
the proc file system has been disabled.

Also statically allocate the ext4_kset and ext4_feat objects, since we
only need exactly one of each, and it's simpler and less code if we
drop the dynamic allocation and deallocation when it's not needed.
