As it stands today, btrfs-progs won't build if the installed
kernel headers don't define FIEMAP_EXTENT_SHARED.

But that doesn't tell us anything about the capabilities of
the /running/ kernel - so just define it locally if not found
in the fiemap header, and allow the build to proceed.

If run against an old kernel, worst case scenario is that
no shared extents will be reported via the du command.

you can take it or leave it, but I had this locally 
anyway, so if it's helpful here you go :)
