Seth Forshee 60bcc88ad1 fuse: Add posix ACL support
Add a new INIT flag, FUSE_POSIX_ACL, for negotiating ACL support with
userspace.  When it is set in the INIT response, ACL support will be
enabled.  ACL support also implies "default_permissions".

When ACL support is enabled, the kernel will cache and have responsibility
for enforcing ACLs.  ACL xattrs will be passed to userspace, which is
responsible for updating the ACLs in the filesystem, keeping the file mode
in sync, and inheritance of default ACLs when new filesystem nodes are
created.

Seth Forshee 703c73629f fuse: Use generic xattr ops
In preparation for posix acl support, rework fuse to use xattr handlers and
the generic setxattr/getxattr/listxattr callbacks.  Split the xattr code
out into it's own file, and promote symbols to module-global scope as
needed.

Functionally these changes have no impact, as fuse still uses a single
handler for all xattrs which uses the old callbacks.
