    xfstest: add defragmentation stress tests for ext4

    Perform various regression tests for ext4defrag subsystem

     301'th Test1: Defragment file while other task does direct AIO
     302'th Test2: Perform defragmentation on file under buffered AIO
        while third task does direct AIO to donor file
     303'th Test3: Two defrag tasks use common donor file.
     304'th Test4: Stress defragmentation. Several threads perform
        fragmentation at random position use inplace=1 will
        allocate and free blocks inside defrag event improve
        load pressure.

    This tests are considered dangerous because 302'th and 303'th are known
    to trigger OOPS on recent kernels
