Amir Goldstein 304e9c83e8 exportfs: add explicit flag to request non-decodeable file handles
So far, all callers of exportfs_encode_inode_fh(), except for fsnotify's
show_mark_fhandle(), check that filesystem can decode file handles, but
we would like to add more callers that do not require a file handle that
can be decoded.

Introduce a flag to explicitly request a file handle that may not to be
decoded later and a wrapper exportfs_encode_fid() that sets this flag
and convert show_mark_fhandle() to use the new wrapper.

This will be used to allow adding fanotify support to filesystems that
do not support NFS export.
