historical thing that does not serve any practical purpose.

Ensure the translation happens by failing to read or write
posix acls when the filesystem has not indicated it supports
posix acls.
This ensures that modern cached posix acl support is available
and used when dealing with posix acls. This is important
because only that path has the code to convernt the uids and
gids in posix acls into the user namespace of a fuse filesystem.

Add a new INIT flag, FUSE_POSIX_ACL, for negotiating ACL support with
userspace. When it is set in the INIT response, ACL support will be
enabled. ACL support also implies "default_permissions".
When ACL support is enabled, the kernel will cache and have responsibility
for enforcing ACLs. ACL xattrs will be passed to userspace, which is
responsible for updating the ACLs in the filesystem, keeping the file mode
in sync, and inheritance of default ACLs when new filesystem nodes are
created.

In preparation for posix acl support, rework fuse to use xattr handlers and
the generic setxattr/getxattr/listxattr callbacks. Split the xattr code
out into it's own file, and promote symbols to module-global scope as
needed.
Functionally these changes have no impact, as fuse still uses a single
handler for all xattrs which uses the old callbacks.
