ima: Make it independent from 'integrity' LSM

Make the 'ima' LSM independent from the 'integrity' LSM by introducing IMA
own integrity metadata (ima_iint_cache structure, with IMA-specific fields
from the integrity_iint_cache structure), and by managing it directly from
the 'ima' LSM.

Create ima_iint.c and introduce the same integrity metadata management
functions found in iint.c (renamed with ima_). However, instead of putting
metadata in an rbtree, reserve space from IMA in the inode security blob
for a pointer, and introduce the ima_inode_set_iint()/ima_inode_get_iint()
primitives to store/retrieve that pointer. This improves search time from
logarithmic to constant.

Consequently, don't include the inode pointer as field in the
ima_iint_cache structure, since the association with the inode is clear.
Since the inode field is missing in ima_iint_cache, pass the extra inode
parameter to ima_get_verity_digest().

Prefer storing the pointer instead of the entire ima_iint_cache structure,
to avoid too much memory pressure. Use the same mechanism as before, a
cache named ima_iint_cache (renamed from iint_cache), to quickly allocate
a new ima_iint_cache structure when requested by the IMA policy.

Create the new ima_iint_cache in ima_iintcache_init(),
called by init_ima_lsm(), during the initialization of the 'ima' LSM. And,
register ima_inode_free_security() to free the ima_iint_cache structure, if
exists.

Replace integrity_iint_cache with ima_iint_cache in various places of the
IMA code. Also, replace integrity_inode_get() and integrity_iint_find(),
respectively with ima_inode_get() and ima_iint_find().

Finally, move the remaining IMA-specific flags
to security/integrity/ima/ima.h, since they are now unnecessary in the
common integrity layer.
