Introduce a new flag FUSE_GETATTR_PERM for getattr request. The flag
indicates that the getattr request is for permission check. When getattr
is for permission check, the user space daemon does not need to provide
accurate size/ctime/mtime.
This optimization is for Ceph fuse client. When a directory is accessed
by multiple clients, getting accurate size/ctime/mtime of inode can be
slow.
