nfsd encodes "connectable" file handles for the subtree_check feature,
which can be resolved to an open file with a connected path.
So far, userspace nfs server could not make use of this functionality.
Introduce a new flag AT_HANDLE_CONNECTABLE to name_to_handle_at(2).
When used, the encoded file handle is "explicitly connectable".
The "explicitly connectable" file handle sets bits in the high 16bit of
the handle_type field, so open_by_handle_at(2) will know that it needs
to open a file with a connected path.
old kernels will now recognize the handle_type with high bits set,
so "explicitly connectable" file handles cannot be decoded by
open_by_handle_at(2) on old kernels.
The flag AT_HANDLE_CONNECTABLE is not allowed together with either
AT_HANDLE_FID or AT_EMPTY_PATH.
