This script is originally from Darren Hart, it will be used for creating
the ext* filesystem from a given directory, which will replace the
genext2fs in image_types.bbclass at the moment, we may use the mke2fs to
replace this script again when it has the initial directory support.

Changes of the script:
* Rename it from mkdebugfs.sh to populate-extfs.sh
* Add a simple usage
* Add checking for the number of the parameters
* Add the "regular empty file" and "fifo" file type
* Set mode, uid and gid for the file
* Save the command lines to a file and batch run them
* Change the error message
* Improve the performance
* Add the support for hardlink

Ted has offered to add this to the contrib dir for the ext2 tools. This
is fine to add to yocto, but we should contribute this back upstream as
well.


Thanks, I will send it to linux ext4 list.
