[XFS] XFS: ASCII case-insensitive support



Implement ASCII case-insensitive support. It's primary purpose is for
supporting existing filesystems that already use this case-insensitive
mode migrated from IRIX. But, if you only need ASCII-only case-insensitive
support (ie. English only) and will never use another language, then this
mode is perfectly adequate.

ASCII-CI is implemented by generating hashes based on lower-case letters
and doing lower-case compares. It implements a new xfs_nameops vector for
doing the hashes and comparisons for all filename operations.

To create a filesystem with this CI mode, use: # mkfs.xfs -n version=ci
<device>
