When caching a NFSv4 ACL, we want to specify whether we are caching an
NFSv4.0 type acl, the NFSv4.1 dacl or the NFSv4.1 sacl.

Refactor: surface useful show_ macros so they can be shared between
the client and server trace code.

Additional clean up:
- Housekeeping: ensure the correct #include files are pulled in
  and add proper TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM where they are missing
- Use a consistent naming scheme for the helpers
- Store values to be displayed symbolically as unsigned long, as
  that is the type that the __print_yada() functions take

The change_attr_type allows the server to provide a description of how
the change attribute will behave. This again will allow the client to
optimise its behaviour w.r.t. attribute revalidation.

This reverts commit a85857633b04d57f4524cca0a2bfaf87b2543f9f.

We're still factoring ctime into our change attribute even in the
IS_I_VERSION case.  If someone sets the system time backwards, a client
could see the change attribute go backwards.  Maybe we can just say
"well, don't do that", but there's some question whether that's good
enough, or whether we need a better guarantee.

Also, the client still isn't actually using the attribute.

While we're still figuring this out, let's just stop returning this
attribute.

This patch adds client support for decoding a single NFS4_CONTENT_DATA
segment returned by the server. This is the simplest implementation
possible, since it does not account for any hole segments in the reply.

<title>NFS: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array</title>

<id>1ad8dd939a9826ff6f8c69ac13e4e1dbba076703</id>
<content type='text'>
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
        int stuff;
        struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.
