fscrypt: support test_dummy_encryption=v2
v1 encryption policies are deprecated in favor of v2, and some new features (e.g. encryption+casefolding) are only being added for v2. Therefore, the "test_dummy_encryption" mount option (which is used for encryption I/O testing with xfstests) needs to support v2 policies. To do this, extend its syntax to be "test_dummy_encryption=v1" or "test_dummy_encryption=v2". The existing "test_dummy_encryption" (no argument) also continues to be accepted, to specify the default setting -- currently v1, but the next patch changes it to v2. To cleanly support both v1 and v2 while also making it easy to support specifying other encryption settings in the future (say, accepting "$contents_mode:$filenames_mode:v2"), make ext4 and f2fs maintain a pointer to the dummy fscrypt_context rather than using mount flags. To avoid concurrency issues, don't allow test_dummy_encryption to be set or changed during a remount. (The former restriction is new, but xfstests doesn't run into it, so no one should notice.) Tested with 'gce-xfstests -c {ext4,f2fs}/encrypt -g auto'. On ext4, there are two regressions, both of which are test bugs: ext4/023 and ext4/028 fail because they set an xattr and expect it to be stored inline, but the increase in size of the fscrypt_context from 24 to 40 bytes causes this xattr to be spilled into an external block.
