shmem: adapt to rhashtable-based simple_xattrs with lazy allocation

Adapt tmpfs/shmem to use the rhashtable-based xattr path and switch
from an embedded struct to pointer-based lazy allocation.

Change shmem_inode_info.xattrs from embedded 'struct simple_xattrs' to
a pointer 'struct simple_xattrs *', initialized to NULL. This avoids
the rhashtable overhead for every tmpfs inode, which helps when a lot of
inodes exist.

The xattr store is allocated on first use:

- shmem_initxattrs(): Allocates via simple_xattrs_alloc() when
  security modules set initial xattrs during inode creation.

- shmem_xattr_handler_set(): Allocates on first setxattr, with a
  short-circuit for removal when no xattrs are stored yet.

All read paths (shmem_xattr_handler_get, shmem_listxattr) check for
NULL xattrs pointer and return -ENODATA or 0 respectively.

Replaced xattr entries are freed via simple_xattr_free_rcu() to allow
concurrent RCU readers to finish.

shmem_evict_inode() conditionally frees the xattr store only when
allocated.

Also change simple_xattr_add() from void to int to propagate
rhashtable insertion failures. shmem_initxattrs() is the only caller.
