Chunwei Chen 21f604d460 Prevent duplicated xattr between SA and dir
When replacing an xattr would cause overflowing in SA, we would fallback
to xattr dir. However, current implementation don't clear the one in SA,
so we would end up with duplicated SA.

For example, running the following script on an xattr=sa filesystem
would cause duplicated "user.1".

-- dup_xattr.sh begin --
randbase64()
{
        dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1 count=$1 2>/dev/null | openssl enc -a -A
}

file=$1
touch $file
setfattr -h -n user.1 -v `randbase64 5000` $file
setfattr -h -n user.2 -v `randbase64 20000` $file
setfattr -h -n user.3 -v `randbase64 20000` $file
setfattr -h -n user.1 -v `randbase64 20000` $file
getfattr -m. -d $file
-- dup_xattr.sh end --

Also, when a filesystem is switch from xattr=sa to xattr=on, it will
never modify those in SA. This would cause strange behavior like, you
cannot delete an xattr, or setxattr would cause duplicate and the result
would not match when you getxattr.

For example, the following shell sequence.

-- shell begin --
$ sudo zfs set xattr=sa pp/fs0
$ touch zzz
$ setfattr -n user.test -v asdf zzz
$ sudo zfs set xattr=on pp/fs0
$ setfattr -x user.test zzz
setfattr: zzz: No such attribute
$ getfattr -d zzz
user.test="asdf"
$ setfattr -n user.test -v zxcv zzz
$ getfattr -d zzz
user.test="asdf"
user.test="asdf"
-- shell end --

We fix this behavior, by first finding where the xattr resides before
setxattr. Then, after we successfully updated the xattr in one location,
we will clear the other location. Note that, because update and clear
are not in single tx, we could still end up with duplicated xattr. But
by doing setxattr again, it can be fixed.
