Thinking about this some more, I've convinced myself this is what we
really should do.  So I've added the following to the next branch.

    libext2fs: handle inline_data in block iterator by returning an error code
    
    An inode with inline data has no data blocks, so we can not iterate
    over such an inode.  Return an error code which indicates this fact;
    callers can use this to determine whether or not the inode has inline
    data, and then call some routine to iterate over the directory intries
    in the line data or read the inline data, as appropriate.
