This inserts compatibility check in nilfs_open function so that it
refuses to open the nilfs partition whose super block has incompatible
features that nilfs-utils doesn't know about.

It is verified only when NILFS_OPEN_RAW mode is specified.  Moreover,
only incompat feature set is tested because the current nilfs_open
doesn't open the device in read/write mode.

Programs that want to write to the nilfs partition not via io-control
must confirm read-only compat feature set as well as the incompat
feature set.
