Update the security_inode_listsecurity() interface to allow
use of the xattr_list_one() helper and update the hook
implementations.

This patch is relative to the one linked above, which in theory is on
vfs.fixes but doesn't appear to have been pushed when I looked.

Thanks Stephen.  Once we get ACKs from the NFS, netdev, and Smack
folks I can pull this into the LSM tree.
Note that this will need to have a conflict resolved with:
https://lore.kernel.org/selinux/20250605164852.2016-1-stephen.smalley.work@gmail.com/ (local)

Fortunately it should be straightforward - just delete the line added
by that patch since this patch fixes the security_inode_listsecurity()
hook interface to return 0 or -errno itself.
Yep, I'm pretty much just waiting on -rc1 right now.
