Skips calculation of st_nlink for directories, which can be
expensive on higher latency file systems such as NFS.

if we are adding a new file to a directory, the parent directory must
be invalidated if it is in the middle of a opendir/releasedir
otherwise the added files won't be cached.

also honor user.containers.override_stat to override containers stat
override as it is set by containers/storage.

introduce a new xattr "user.fuseoverlayfs.override_stat" that permit
to override the reported uid/gid/mode for lower layers.
It enables sharing storage among different users.
Since it is not possible to use "user.*" xattrs for symlinks, provide
also a privileged variant "security.fuseoverlayfs.override_stat", so
the root user can create the xattr for symlinks as well.
A script "fix-mode.py" is provided for converting an existing
layer/storage to the new model. It is a destructive operation as
every file is converted to mode 0755, thus it is not usable anymore
with native overlay, or older versions of fuse-overlayfs.
Example with Podman:
Rootless:
Modify /.config/containers/storage.conf and add under storage.options:
additionalimagestores = ["/var/lib/shared-storage"]
Assuming an empty local storage for the user:
$ podman images
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE ReadOnly
docker.io/library/fedora latest a368cbcfa678 5 weeks ago 189 MB true
and the files show the original mode and owner:
$ podman run --read-only --rm -ti docker.io/library/fedora ls -l /

Add a simple plugin mechanism that will help to expand fuse-overlayfs
functionalities, in particular it allows to load data from a layer on
demand.
A plugin is loaded into fuse-overlayfs using the option:
-o plugins=path/to/plugin.so:path/to/another/plugin.so
A layer can use a plugin with the syntax:
-o lowerdir=//plugin-name/DATA-FOR-THE-PLUGIN/path
Each time a file/directory is looked up, if a plugin is registered for
a layer, the plugin is first notified about the request.
After the callback is invoked, fuse-overlayfs still expects the data
to be accessible at the specified directory.
