xfs: don't expose internal symlink metadata buffers to the vfs

Browse Source 
Ian Kent reported that for inline symlinks, it's possible for
vfs_readlink to hang on to the target buffer returned by
_vn_get_link_inline long after it's been freed by xfs inode reclaim.
This is a layering violation -- we should never expose XFS internals to
the VFS.

When the symlink has a remote target, we allocate a separate buffer,
copy the internal information, and let the VFS manage the new buffer's
lifetime.  Let's adapt the inline code paths to do this too.  It's
less efficient, but fixes the layering violation and avoids the need to
adapt the if_data lifetime to rcu rules.  Clearly I don't care about
readlink benchmarks.

As a side note, this fixes the minor locking violation where we can
access the inode data fork without taking any locks; proper locking (and
eliminating the possibility of having to switch inode_operations on a
live inode) is essential to online repair coordinating repairs
correctly.
