fsck.gfs2: system dinodes take priority over user  dinodes

In testing fsck.gfs2 I noticed some incorrect behavior: If a block
was referenced incorrectly by two dinodes, fsck deleted which
ever reference it found first.  Therefore, if a system dinode
and a user dinode referenced the same block, fsck.gfs2 could
mistakenly delete the system dinode.  For example, a journal could
get deleted because a user dinode improperly referenced one of its
blocks.  This patch gives priority to system dinodes when resolving
duplicates.
