Now that the xattr handler is passed to the xattr handler operations, we
can use the same get and set operations for the user, trusted, and security
xattr namespaces. In those namespaces, we can access the full attribute
name by "reattaching" the name prefix the vfs has skipped for us. Add a
xattr_full_name helper to make this obvious in the code.
For the "system.posix_acl_access" and "system.posix_acl_default"
attributes, handler->prefix is the full attribute name; the suffix is the
empty string.

The xattr_handler operations are currently all passed a file system
specific flags value which the operations can use to disambiguate between
different handlers; some file systems use that to distinguish the xattr
namespace, for example. In some oprations, it would be useful to also have
access to the handler prefix. To allow that, pass a pointer to the handler
to operations instead of the flags value alone.

Allow requests for security.* and trusted.* xattr name spaces
to pass through to server.
The new files are 99% cut and paste from fs/9p/xattr_user.c with the
namespaces changed. It has the intended effect in superficial testing.
I do not know much detail about how these namespaces are used, but passing
them through to the server, which can decide whether to handle them or not,
seems reasonable.
I want to support a use case where an ext4 file system is mounted via 9P,
then re-exported via samba to windows clients in a cluster. Windows wants
to store xattrs such as security.NTACL. This works when ext4 directly
backs samba, but not when 9P is inserted. This use case is documented here:
