Patchwork e2fsck: fix error in computing blocks of the ending group

If the blocks of a filesystem is a multiple of blocks_per_group,
blocks of the ending group is computed wrongly.  This patch computes
it by substracting blocks processed from blocks of the filesystem.

I think it would be clearer to just get the last group block count from
superblock information, rather than from using the loop counter.

For example resize does:

        if (i == fs->group_desc_count-1) {
                numblocks = (ext2fs_blocks_count(fs->super) -
                             fs->super->s_first_data_block) %
                                     fs->super->s_blocks_per_group;
                if (!numblocks)
                        numblocks = fs->super->s_blocks_per_group;


same as this function in alloc_sb.c:

        if (group == fs->group_desc_count-1) {
                num_blocks = (ext2fs_blocks_count(fs->super) -
                             fs->super->s_first_data_block) %
                        fs->super->s_blocks_per_group;
                if (!num_blocks)
                        num_blocks = fs->super->s_blocks_per_group;


Hm, seems maybe an ext2fs_blocks_in_group() helper function might be
nice, since this is a little verbose, and is used fairly often.

Actually I see that I misread this... here we are dealing with
clusters per group and my proposed blocks per group helper won't help.
Sorry for the noise, I think your patch should go in as proposed.

I'll still send my helper, but I don't think it will help in this
location, and your patch is correct.
