FROMLIST: fscrypt: add FS_IOC_GET_ENCRYPTION_NONCE ioctl

Add an ioctl FS_IOC_GET_ENCRYPTION_NONCE which retrieves the nonce from
an encrypted file or directory.  The nonce is the 16-byte random value
stored in the inode's encryption xattr.  It is normally used together
with the master key to derive the inode's actual encryption key.

The nonces are needed by automated tests that verify the correctness of
the ciphertext on-disk.  Except for the IV_INO_LBLK_64 case, there's no
way to replicate a file's ciphertext without knowing that file's nonce.

The nonces aren't secret, and the existing ciphertext verification tests
in xfstests retrieve them from disk using debugfs or dump.f2fs.  But in
environments that lack these debugging tools, getting the nonces by
manually parsing the filesystem structure would be very hard.

To make this important type of testing much easier, let's just add an
ioctl that retrieves the nonce.

+Getting a file's encryption nonce
+---------------------------------
+
+Since Linux v5.7, the ioctl FS_IOC_GET_ENCRYPTION_NONCE is supported.
+On encrypted files and directories it gets the inode's 16-byte nonce.
+On unencrypted files and directories, it fails with ENODATA.
+
+This ioctl can be useful for automated tests which verify that the
+encryption is being done correctly.  It is not needed for normal use
+of fscrypt.
