ovl: support encoding non-decodable file handles
When all layers support file handles, we support encoding non-decodable file handles (a.k.a. fid) even with nfs_export=off. When file handles do not need to be decoded, we do not need to copy up redirected lower directories on encode, and we encode also non-indexed upper with lower file handle, so fid will not change on copy up. This enables reporting fanotify events with file handles on overlayfs with default config/mount options. Signed-off-by: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@gmail.com>
