This patch adds the s_incompat flag for extended attribute support. This
helps us ensure that older versions of Ocfs2 or ocfs2-tools will not be able
to mount a volume with xattr support.

In inode removal, we need to iterate all the buckets, remove any
externally-stored EA values and delete the xattr buckets.

Where the previous patches added the ability of list/get xattr in buckets
for ocfs2, this patch enables ocfs2 to store large numbers of EAs.
The original design doc is written by Mark Fasheh, and it can be found in
http://oss.oracle.com/osswiki/OCFS2/DesignDocs/IndexedEATrees. I only had to
make small modifications to it.
First, because the bucket size is 4K, a new field named xh_free_start is added
in ocfs2_xattr_header to indicate the next valid name/value offset in a bucket.
It is used when we store new EA name/value. With this field, we can find the
place more quickly and what's more, we don't need to sort the name/value every
time to let the last entry indicate the next unused space. This makes the
insert operation more efficient for blocksizes smaller than 4k.
Because of the new xh_free_start, another field named as xh_name_value_len is
also added in ocfs2_xattr_header. It records the total length of all the
name/values in the bucket. We need this so that we can check it and defragment
the bucket if there is not enough contiguous free space.
An xattr insertion looks like this:
1. xattr_index_block_find: find the right bucket by the name_hash, say bucketA.
2. check whether there is enough space in bucketA. If yes, insert it directly
and modify xh_free_start and xh_name_value_len accordingly. If not, check
xh_name_value_len to see whether we can store this by defragment the bucket.
If yes, defragment it and go on insertion.
3. If defragement doesn't work, check whether there is new empty bucket in
the clusters within this extent record. If yes, init the new bucket and move
all the buckets after bucketA one by one to the next bucket. Move half of the
entries in bucketA to the next bucket and go on insertion.
4. If there is no new bucket, grow the extent tree.
As for xattr deletion, we will delete an xattr bucket when all it's xattrs
are removed and move all the buckets after it to the previous one. When all
the xattr buckets in an extend record are freed, free this extend records
from ocfs2_xattr_tree.

Add code to lookup a given extended attribute in the xattr btree. Lookup
follows this general scheme:
1. Use ocfs2_xattr_get_rec to find the xattr extent record
2. Find the xattr bucket within the extent which may contain this xattr
3. Iterate the bucket to find the xattr. In ocfs2_xattr_block_get(), we need
to recalcuate the block offset and name offset for the right position of
name/value.

Ocfs2 breaks up xattr index tree leaves into 4k regions, called buckets.
Attributes are stored within a given bucket, depending on hash value.
After a discussion with Mark, we decided that the per-bucket index
(xe_entry[]) would only exist in the 1st block of a bucket. Likewise,
name/value pairs will not straddle more than one block. This allows the
majority of operations to work directly on the buffer heads in a leaf block.
This patch adds code to iterate the buckets in an EA. A new abstration of
ocfs2_xattr_bucket is added. It records the bhs in this bucket and
ocfs2_xattr_header. This keeps the code neat, improving readibility.

This patch implements storing extended attributes both in inode or a single
external block. We only store EA's in-inode when blocksize > 512 or that
inode block has free space for it. When an EA's value is larger than 80
bytes, we will store the value via b-tree outside inode or block.

Add some thin wrappers around ocfs2_insert_extent() for each of the 3
different btree types, ocfs2_inode_insert_extent(),
ocfs2_xattr_value_insert_extent() and ocfs2_xattr_tree_insert_extent(). The
last is for the xattr index btree, which will be used in a followup patch.
All the old callers in file.c etc will call ocfs2_dinode_insert_extent(),
while the other two handle the xattr issue. And the init of extent tree are
handled by these functions.
When storing xattr value which is too large, we will allocate some clusters
for it and here ocfs2_extent_list and ocfs2_extent_rec will also be used. In
order to re-use the b-tree operation code, a new parameter named "private"
is added into ocfs2_extent_tree and it is used to indicate the root of
ocfs2_exent_list. The reason is that we can't deduce the root from the
buffer_head now. It may be in an inode, an ocfs2_xattr_block or even worse,
in any place in an ocfs2_xattr_bucket.
