Formal big pcluster design is actually more powerful / flexable than
the previous thought whose pclustersize was fixed as power-of-2 blocks,
which was obviously inefficient and space-wasting. Instead, pclustersize
can now be set independently for each pcluster, so various pcluster
sizes can also be used together in one file if mkfs wants (for example,
according to data type and/or compression ratio).
Let's get rid of previous physical_clusterbits[] setting (also notice
that corresponding on-disk fields are still 0 for now). Therefore,
head1/2 can be used for at most 2 different algorithms in one file and
again pclustersize is now independent of these.

Add a bitmap for available compression algorithms and a variable-sized
on-disk table for compression options in preparation for upcoming big
pcluster and LZMA algorithm, which follows the end of super block.
To parse the compression options, the bitmap is scanned one by one.
For each available algorithm, there is data followed by 2-byte `length'
correspondingly (it's enough for most cases, or entire fs blocks should
be used.)
With such available algorithm bitmap, kernel itself can also refuse to
mount such filesystem if any unsupported compression algorithm exists.
Note that COMPR_CFGS feature will be enabled with BIG_PCLUSTER.

lz4 uses LZ4_DISTANCE_MAX to record history preservation. When
using rolling decompression, a block with a higher compression
ratio will cause a larger memory allocation (up to 64k). It may
cause a large resource burden in extreme cases on devices with
small memory and a large number of concurrent IOs. So appropriately
reducing this value can improve performance.
Decreasing this value will reduce the compression ratio (except
when input_size <LZ4_DISTANCE_MAX). But considering that erofs
currently only supports 4k output, reducing this value will not
significantly reduce the compression benefits.
The maximum value of LZ4_DISTANCE_MAX defined by lz4 is 64k, and
we can only reduce this value. For the old kernel, it just can't
reduce the memory allocation during rolling decompression without
affecting the decompression result.

Extend some inode methods with an additional user namespace argument. A
filesystem that is aware of idmapped mounts will receive the user
namespace the mount has been marked with. This can be used for
additional permission checking and also to enable filesystems to
translate between uids and gids if they need to. We have implemented all
relevant helpers in earlier patches.
As requested we simply extend the exisiting inode method instead of
introducing new ones. This is a little more code churn but it's mostly
mechanical and doesnt't leave us with additional inode methods.

Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:

For each line:
If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:

XArray has friendly APIs and it will replace the old radix
tree in the near future.
This convert makes use of __xa_cmpxchg when inserting on
a just inserted item by other thread. In detail, instead
of totally looking up again as what we did for the old
radix tree, it will try to legitimize the current in-tree
item in the XArray therefore more effective.
In addition, naming is rather a challenge for non-English
speaker like me. The basic idea of workstn is to provide
a runtime sparse array with items arranged in the physical
block number order. Such items (was called workgroup) can be
used to record compress clusters or for later new features.
However, both workgroup and workstn seem not good names from
whatever point of view, so I'd like to rename them as pslot
and managed_pslots to stand for physical slots. This patch
handles the second as a part of the radix tree convert.

VLE was an old informal name of fixed-sized output
compression which came from published ATC'19 paper [1].
Drop those old annotations since erofs can handle
all encoded clusters in block-aligned basis, which
is wider than fixed-sized output compression after
larger clustersize feature is fully implemented.
Unaligned encoding won't be considered in EROFS
since it's not friendly to inplace I/O and perhaps
decompression inplace.
a) Fixed-sized output compression with 16KB pcluster:
___________________________________
|xxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxx|
|___ 0___|___ 1___|___ 2___|___ 3___| physical blocks
b) Block-aligned fixed-sized input compression with
16KB pcluster:
___________________________________
|xxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxx|xxx00000|
|___ 0___|___ 1___|___ 2___|___ 3___| physical blocks
c) Block-unaligned fixed-sized input compression with
16KB compression unit:
____________________________________________
|..xxxxxx|xxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxx|xxxxxxxx|x.......|
|___ 0___|___ 1___|___ 2___|___ 3___|___ 4___| physical blocks
Refine better names for those as well.

EROFS filesystem has been merged into linux-staging for a year.
EROFS is designed to be a better solution of saving extra storage
space with guaranteed end-to-end performance for read-only files
with the help of reduced metadata, fixed-sized output compression
and decompression inplace technologies.
In the past year, EROFS was greatly improved by many people as
a staging driver, self-tested, betaed by a large number of our
internal users, successfully applied to almost all in-service
HUAWEI smartphones as the part of EMUI 9.1 and proven to be stable
enough to be moved out of staging.
EROFS is a self-contained filesystem driver. Although there are
still some TODOs to be more generic, we have a dedicated team
actively keeping on working on EROFS in order to make it better
with the evolution of Linux kernel as the other in-kernel filesystems.
As Pavel suggested, it's better to do as one commit since git
can do moves and all histories will be saved in this way.
Let's promote it from staging and enhance it more actively as
a "real" part of kernel for more wider scenarios!
