Allow format of sparse inode chunk enabled filesystems via the '-i
sparse' flag. Note that sparse inode chunk support requires a v5
superblock (-m crc=1).

+When enabled, sparse inode allocation allows the filesystem to allocate
+smaller than the standard 64-inode chunk when free space is severely
+limited. This feature is useful for filesystems that might fragment free
+space over time such that no free extents are large enough to
+accommodate a chunk of 64 inodes. Without this feature enabled, inode
+allocations can fail with out of space errors under severe fragmented
+free space conditions.
