[PATCHv2] fcntl: don't define OFD lock constants for 32-bit builds with small file offsets

The Linux kernel expects a flock64 structure whenever you use OFD locks
with fcntl64. Unfortunately, you can currently build a 32-bit program
that passes in a struct flock when it calls fcntl64, which will
typically make the program fail (or crash).

Only define the F_OFD_* command constants when large file offsets are
enabled, either by virtue of being on a 64-bit arch, or by defining
_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64. By doing this, we ensure that such builds will
break instead of generating a binary that doesn't behave as expected.

I think this is the simplest option all around, and shouldn't cause any
builds to break whose applications are not already broken. Note too that
there is a corresponding manpage patch already proposed by Cyril.
