Add inode operations for getting, setting and removing filesystem
capabilities rather than passing around raw xattr data. This provides
better type safety for ids contained within xattrs.

If it's really a flags argument, then unsigned int, please,
This is the flags for setxattr, which is an int everywhere. Or almost
everywhere; I just noticed that it is actually an unsigned int in struct
xattr_ctx. But for consistency I think it makes sense to have it be an
int here too. Though maybe naming it setxattr_flags would be helpful for
clarity.
