xfs: force rebuilding of metadata

This patchset adds a new IFLAG to the scrub ioctl so that userspace can
force a rebuild of an otherwise consistent piece of metadata.  This will
eventually enable the use of online repair to relocate metadata during a
filesystem reorganization (e.g. shrink).  For now, it facilitates stress
testing of online repair without needing the debugging knobs to be
enabled.
