[readdir] introduce iterate_dir() and dir_context
iterate_dir(): new helper, replacing vfs_readdir(). struct dir_context: contains the readdir callback (and will get more stuff in it), embedded into whatever data that callback wants to deal with; eventually, we'll be passing it to ->readdir() replacement instead of (data,filldir) pair.
