ext4: add a new helper to check if es must be kept

[ Upstream commit 9649eb18c6288f514cacffdd699d5cd999c2f8f6 ]

In the extent status tree, we have extents which we can just drop without
issues and extents we must not drop - this depends on the extent's status
- currently ext4_es_is_delayed() extents must stay, others may be dropped.

A helper function is added to help determine if the current extent can
be dropped, although only ext4_es_is_delayed() extents cannot be dropped
currently.
