e2fsprogs: add supported file attributes to ext4.5 manpage
The chattr(1) manpage now refers users to filesystem-specific manpages for details on supported attributes, so add those to ext4.5. I've left out oddities like being able to set the compressed or no-tail-packing flags, or setting data journaling on ext2. That behavior seems like a bug, not a feature.
