smb3: create smb3 equivalent alias for cifs pseudo-xattrs
We really, really don't want to be encouraging people to use cifs (the dialect) since it is insecure, so to avoid confusion we want to move them to names which include 'smb3' instead of 'cifs' - so this simply creates an alias for the pseudo-xattrs e.g. can now do: getfattr -n user.smb3.creationtime /mnt1/file and getfattr -n user.smb3.dosattrib /mnt1/file and getfattr -n system.smb3_acl /mnt1/file instead of forcing you to use the string 'cifs' in these (e.g. getfattr -n system.cifs_acl /mnt1/file) Signed-off-by: Steve French <stfrench@microsoft.com>
