ext4: defrag not supported with DAX

As of this kernel commit:

commit 73f34a5e2ced ("ext4: online defrag not supported with DAX")

online defrag operations for ext4 are disallowed when the filesystem is
mounted with the DAX option.

This causes several xfstests to fail because they expect the defrag
operation to change the file layout:

Avoid this by skipping over defrag tests if we are using ext4 + DAX.
