fstrim: add --quiet option to suppress error messages
When fstrim interacts with NTFS it result can be error reporting bad file descriptor. That seems to be a bug in NTFS. While waiting driver to get on top of the issue and be commonly available lets add to fstrim option to make it be more silent about errno 9 aka EBADF, Bad file descriptor.
