fs: export may_delete() as may_delete_dentry()
For many years btrfs as been using a copy of may_delete() in fs/btrfs/ioctl.c:btrfs_may_delete(). Everytime may_delete() is updated we need to update the btrfs copy, and this is a maintenance burden. Currently there are minor differences between both because the btrfs side lacks updates done in may_delete(). Export may_delete() so that btrfs can use it and with the less generic name may_delete_dentry(). While at it change the calls in vfs_rmdir() to pass a boolean literal instead of 1 and 0 as the last argument since the argument has a bool type.
