bpf: Add simple xattr support to bpffs

Add support for extended attributes on bpffs inodes so that user space
and BPF LSM programs can attach metadata, for example, a content hash
or a security label - to a pinned object or directory. BPF LSM or user
space tooling can then uniformly look at this (e.g. security.bpf.*) in
similar way to other fs'es. The store is in-memory and non-persistent:
it lives only for the lifetime of the mount, like everything else in
bpffs. The modelling is similar to tmpfs.

bpffs serves the trusted.* and security.* namespaces; user.* is left
unsupported. As bpffs is FS_USERNS_MOUNT, security.* is reachable by
the unprivileged mounter in a user namespace, and thus we are using
the simple_xattr_set_limited infra there (trusted.* needs global
CAP_SYS_ADMIN).

bpf_fill_super() is open-coded instead of using simple_fill_super(),
because the root inode must now be allocated through bpf_fs_alloc_inode()
i.e. carry the bpf_fs_inode wrapper and come from the right cache -
which requires s_op (and s_xattr) to be installed before the first
inode is created. While at it, also harden s_iflags with SB_I_NOEXEC
and SB_I_NODEV.

bpf_fs_listxattr() is only reachable through the filesystem via
i_op->listxattr, so the BPF token inode is left untouched. Name-based
fsetxattr()/fgetxattr() on a token fd still work since the get/set
handlers are installed at the superblock.

For security.* namespace, we use simple_xattr_set_limited() but
there was no simple_xattr_add_limited() API yet which was needed
in bpf_fs_initxattrs() to avoid underflows in the accounting. The
symlink target is freed in bpf_free_inode() rather than in
bpf_destroy_inode() so that it is released only after an RCU grace
period, as an RCU path walk following the symlink may still
dereference inode->i_link in security_inode_follow_link(). Lastly,
the bpf_symlink() allocated the symlink target is switched to
GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT, so the string is charged to the caller's memcg.
