[Buildroot] [git commit branch/next] btrfs-progs: make e2fsprogs an optional dependency

[Thomas Petazzoni]

commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=237c8d6b0ced7954ef64bd8b4d82a95d93443a88
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/next

e2fsprogs is only needed to build the btrfs-convert program, that
allows to convert an existing ext2 filesystem into a btrfs
filesystem. Not everybody needs to do that and making this dependency
optional is nicer, so this is what this patch does.

Note that btrfs-progs also supports converting from reiserfs, which is
why the --with-convert option supports a list of filesystems. Since
Buildroot has no package for the reiserfs library, we for now only
support the ext2 case, with e2fsprogs as a dependency.
