commit 5b9aaae742a79ef6001e58e5031b5f6ec03fe1ad

    e2fsprogs: reorder flags in chattr(1)

    The flags described in chattr usage() and the chattr(1) manpage
    were in semi-random order, which makes it hard to ascertain
    which flags might be missing or undocumented, and to locate
    flags within the manpage.

    Re-order the list of flags in alphanumeric order, and do
    the same for the flag descriptions in the body of the manpage.

    There should be no content changes here, just reordering
    for consistency.
