xfs: create a hashname function for parent pointers
Although directory entry and parent pointer recordsets look very similar (name -> ino), there's one major difference between them: a file can be hardlinked from multiple parent directories with the same filename. This is common in shared container environments where a base directory tree might be hardlink-copied multiple times. IOWs the same 'ls' program might be hardlinked to multiple /srv/*/bin/ls paths. We don't want parent pointer operations to bog down on hash collisions between the same dirent name, so create a special hash function that mixes in the parent directory inode number.
