Add a function for filesystems to call to implement the
FS_IOC_ENABLE_VERITY ioctl.  This ioctl enables fs-verity on a file.

See the "FS_IOC_ENABLE_VERITY" section of
Documentation/filesystems/fsverity.rst for the documentation.

If end_enable_Verity() retuns success, and IS_VERITY is not set, I
would think that we should report the error via fsverity_err() and
return an error to userspace, and *not* call fsverity_set_info().  I
don't think the stack trace printed by WARN_ON is going to very
interesting, since the call path which gets us to enable_verity() is
not going to be surprising.

How hard would it be to support fsverity for zero-length files?  There
would be no Merkle tree, but there still would be an fsverity header
file on which we can calculate a checksum for the digital signature.
