performance/readdir-ahead: keep stats of cached dentries in sync with modifications

PROBLEM:

Stats of dentries that are readdirp'd ahead can become stale due to
fops like writes, truncate etc that modify the file pointed by
dentries. When a readdir is finally wound at offset corresponding to
these entries, the iatts that are returned to the application come
from readdir-ahead's cache, which are stale by now. This problem gets
further aggravated when caching translators/modules cache and continue
to serve this stale information.

FIX:

* Store the iatt in context of the inode pointed by dentry.
* Whenever the inode pointed by dentry undergoes modification, in cbk
  of modification fop, update the iatt stored in inode-ctx to reflect
  the modification.
* When serving a readdirp response from application, update iatts of
  dentries with the iatts stored in the context of inodes pointed by
  these dentries.
* Some fops don't have valid iatts in their responses. For eg., write
  response whose data is still cached in write-behind will have zeroed
  out stat. In this case keep only ia_type and ia_gfid and reset rest
  of the iatt members to zero.
  - fuse-bridge in this case just sends "entry" information back to
    kernel and attr is not sent.
  - gfapi sets entry->inode to NULL and zeroes out the entire stat
* There is one tiny race between the entry creation and a readdirp on
  its parent dir, which could cause the inode-ctx setting and inode
  ctx reading to happen on two different inode objects. To prevent
  this, when entry->inode doesn't eqaul to linked_inode,
  - fuse-bridge is made to send only "entry" information without
    attributes
  - gfapi sets entry->inode to NULL and zeroes out the entire stat.
