xattr: use posix acl api
In previous patches we built a new posix api solely around get and set inode operations. Now that we have all the pieces in place we can switch the system calls and the vfs over to only rely on this api when interacting with posix acls. This finally removes all type unsafety and type conversion issues explained in detail in [1] that we aim to get rid of. With the new posix acl api we immediately translate into an appropriate kernel internal struct posix_acl format both when getting and setting posix acls. This is a stark contrast to before were we hacked unsafe raw values into the uapi struct that was stored in a void pointer relying and having filesystems and security modules hack around in the uapi struct as well.
