Metadata directory trees make reasoning about the parent of a file more
difficult. Traditionally, user files are children of sb_rootino, and
metadata files are "children" of the superblock. Now, we add a third
possibility -- some metadata files can be children of sb_metadirino, but
the classic ones (rt free space data and quotas) are left alone.
Let's add some helper functions (instead of open-coding the logic
everywhere) to make scrub logic easier to understand.

Once we've assembled all the parent pointers for a file, we need to
commit the new dataset atomically to that file. Parent pointer records
are embedded in the xattr structure, which means that we must write a
new extended attribute structure, again, atomically. Therefore, we must
copy the non-parent-pointer attributes from the file being repaired into
the temporary file's extended attributes and then call the atomic extent
swap mechanism to exchange the blocks.

While we're scanning the filesystem for parent pointers that we can turn
into dirents, we cannot hold the IOLOCK or ILOCK of the directory being
repaired. Therefore, we need to set up a dirent hook so that we can
keep the temporary directory up to date with the rest of the filesystem.
Hence we add the ability to *remove* entries from the temporary dir.

It's possible that the dentry cache can tell us the parent of a
directory. Therefore, when repairing directory dot dot entries, query
the dcache as a last resort before scanning the entire filesystem.
A reviewer asks:
"How high is the chance that we actually have a valid dcache entry for a
file in a corrupted directory?"
There's a decent chance of this actually working. Say you have a
1000-block directory foo, and block 980 gets corrupted. Let's further
suppose that block 0 has a correct entry for ".." and "bar". If someone
accesses /mnt/foo/bar, that will cause the dcache to create a dentry
from /mnt to /mnt/foo whose d_parent points back to /mnt. If you then
want to rebuild the directory, XFS can obtain the parent from the dcache
without needing to wander into parent pointers or scan the filesystem to
find /mnt's connection to foo.

Teach the online directory repair code to scan the filesystem so that we
can set the dotdot entry when we're rebuilding a directory. This
involves dropping ILOCK on the directory that we're repairing, which
means that the VFS can sneak in and tell us to update dotdot at any
time. Deal with these races by using a dirent hook to absorb dotdot
updates, and be careful not to check the scan results until after we've
retaken the ILOCK.
