pidfs: support xattrs on pidfds
Now that we have a way to persist information for pidfs dentries we can
start supporting extended attributes on pidfds. This will allow
userspace to attach meta information to tasks.
One natural extension would be to introduce a custom pidfs.* extended
attribute space and allow for the inheritance of extended attributes
across fork() and exec().
The first simple scheme will allow privileged userspace to set trusted
extended attributes on pidfs inodes.
