Add some kernel-doc notation to structs in fiemap header files then pull that into Documentation/filesystems/fiemap.rst instead of duplicating the header file structs in fiemap.rst. This helps to future-proof fiemap.rst against struct changes. Add missing flags documentation from header files into fiemap.rst for FIEMAP_FLAG_CACHE and FIEMAP_EXTENT_SHARED.
