fs: Move file_kattr initialization to callers

fileattr_fill_xflags() and fileattr_fill_flags() memset the
entire file_kattr struct before populating select fields, so
callers cannot pre-set fields in fa->fsx_xflags without having
their values clobbered. Darrick Wong noted that a function
named "fill_xflags" touching more than xflags forces callers
to know implementation details beyond its apparent scope.

Drop the memset from both fill functions and initialize at the
entry points instead: ioctl_setflags(), ioctl_fssetxattr(),
the file_setattr() syscall, and xfs_ioc_fsgetxattra() now
declare fa with an aggregate initializer. ioctl_getflags(),
ioctl_fsgetxattr(), and the file_getattr() syscall already
aggregate-initialize fa to pass flags_valid/fsx_valid hints
into vfs_fileattr_get().

Subsequent patches rely on this so that ->fileattr_get()
handlers can set case-sensitivity flags (FS_XFLAG_CASEFOLD,
FS_XFLAG_CASENONPRESERVING) in fa->fsx_xflags before the fill
functions run.
