[LU-12527] lustreapi.h not c++ compatible

Description

If one tries to compile a C++ program with the `lustre/lustreapi.h` header, the compiler will throw all kinds of warnings.

This issue came up on the mailing list a few years ago: http://lists.lustre.org/pipermail/lustre-discuss-lustre.org/2017-March/014268.html and I encountered it again in a different context this week. Guess not many C++ programs try to use lustreapi.h !
