extern keyword

I've noticed that svn_fs.h uses the "extern" keyword for all of its function
declarations. None of the headers in the rest of Subversion, APR, or Neon
use that style, so I would recommend dropping it.

IIRC, ANSI states that a prototype is a declaration if there is no body
associated with the thing. The extern then becomes superfluous.

Cheers,
