The stable_inodes feature is intended to indicate that it's safe to use
IV_INO_LBLK_64 encryption policies, where the encryption depends on the
inode numbers and thus filesystem shrinking is not allowed.  However
since inode numbers are not unique across filesystems, the encryption
also depends on the filesystem UUID, and I missed that there is a
supported way to change the filesystem UUID (tune2fs -U).

So, make 'tune2fs -U' report an error if stable_inodes is set.

We could add a separate stable_uuid feature flag, but it seems unlikely
it would be useful enough on its own to warrant another flag.
