sharedfp/individual: only complain about fseek if sharedfp operations are really in use

this component can only be used in very specific scenarios. However, since some file systems do not support file locking and processes might be distributed over multiple nodes (hence the sm sharedfp component is also inelligible), the component might be selected in some scenarios, even if an application does not intend to use shared file pointers.

Since the fseek_shared function is involved as part of the File_set_view operation, only complain about the inability to perform the seek_shared operation if actual shared file pointer operations are being used. This avoid spurious error values being returned.
