mkfs: add a utility to generate protofiles (2024-12-23 13:05:10 -0800)

mkfs: make protofiles less janky [v6.2 04/23]

Here are some minor improvements to the protofile code in mkfs.  First,
we improve the file copy-in code to avoid allocating gigantic heap
buffers by replacing it with a SEEK_{DATA,HOLE} loop and only copying
a fixed size buffer.  Next, we add the ability to pull in extended
attributes.  Finally, we add a program to generate a protofile from a
directory tree.

Originally this code refactoring was intended to support more efficient
construction of rt bitmap and summary files, but that was subsequently
refactored into libxfs.  However, the cleanups still make the protofile
code less disgusting, so they're being submitted anyway.

This has been running on the djcloud for months with no problems.  Enjoy!
