docs: filesystems: ext4: blockgroup.rst: replace some characters

The conversion tools used during DocBook/LaTeX/html/Markdown->ReST
conversion and some cut-and-pasted text contain some characters that
aren't easily reachable on standard keyboards and/or could cause
troubles when parsed by the documentation build system.

Replace the occurences of the following characters:

- U+2217 ('∗'): ASTERISK OPERATOR
use ASCII asterisk instead of the ASTERISK OPERATOR

··· 84 84 descriptors copies are kept in the first block group. Given the default 85 85 128MiB(2^27 bytes) block group size and 64-byte group descriptors, ext4 86 86 can have at most 2^27/64 = 2^21 block groups. This limits the entire 87 - filesystem size to 2^21 ∗ 2^27 = 2^48bytes or 256TiB. 87 + filesystem size to 2^21 * 2^27 = 2^48bytes or 256TiB. 88 88 89 89 The solution to this problem is to use the metablock group feature 90 90 (META\_BG), which is already in ext3 for all 2.6 releases. With the
