Some remote file systems like nfs may return user or group identifiers
that cannot be mapped to local uids / gids.  Allow to represent such
unmapped identifiers in richacls.  (We still cannot represent unmapped
owners and owning groups, however.)

In the in-memory representation, the richacl is followed by a list of
NUL-terminated strings, with no padding.  Entries with an unmapped
identifier have the RICHACE_UNMAPPED_WHO flag set, and ace->e_id.offs
specifies the offset into this list.  Multiple entries can refer to the
same offset.

The xattr representation is similar, but ace->e_id is ignored, and the
list of unmapped identifier strings contains a string for each acl entry
whose RICHACE_UNMAPPED_WHO flag is set.

This was used by the XFS support patch earlier in the series. Bisect
problem here...
