exportfs: allow exporting non-decodeable file handles to userspace

Browse Source 
Some userspace programs use st_ino as a unique object identifier, even
though inode numbers may be recycable.

This issue has been addressed for NFS export long ago using the exportfs
file handle API and the unique file handle identifiers are also exported
to userspace via name_to_handle_at(2).

fanotify also uses file handles to identify objects in events, but only
for filesystems that support NFS export.

Relax the requirement for NFS export support and allow more filesystems
to export a unique object identifier via name_to_handle_at(2) with the
flag AT_HANDLE_FID.

A file handle requested with the AT_HANDLE_FID flag, may or may not be
usable as an argument to open_by_handle_at(2).

To allow filesystems to opt-in to supporting AT_HANDLE_FID, a struct
export_operations is required, but even an empty struct is sufficient
for encoding FIDs.
