fs: use mount types in iattr
Add ia_vfs{g,u}id members of type vfs{g,u}id_t to struct iattr. We use an anonymous union (similar to what we do in struct file) around ia_{g,u}id and ia_vfs{g,u}id. At the end of this series ia_{g,u}id and ia_vfs{g,u}id will always contain the same value independent of whether struct iattr is initialized from an idmapped mount. This is a change from how this is done today. Wrapping this in a anonymous unions has a few advantages. It allows us to avoid needlessly increasing struct iattr. Since the types for ia_{g,u}id and ia_vfs{g,u}id are structures with overlapping/identical members they are covered by 6.5.2.3/6 of the C standard and it is safe to initialize and access them. Filesystems that raise FS_ALLOW_IDMAP and thus support idmapped mounts will have to use ia_vfs{g,u}id and the associated helpers. And will be ported at the end of this series. They will immediately benefit from the type safe new helpers. Filesystems that do not support FS_ALLOW_IDMAP can continue to use ia_{g,u}id for now. The aim is to convert every filesystem to always use ia_vfs{g,u}id and thus ultimately remove the ia_{g,u}id members.
