netfs: Fix gcc-12 warning by embedding vfs inode in netfs_i_context
While randstruct was satisfied with using an open-coded "void *" offset
cast for the netfs_i_context <-> inode casting, __builtin_object_size() as
used by FORTIFY_SOURCE was not as easily fooled.  This was causing the
following complaint[1] from gcc v12:

  In file included from include/linux/string.h:253,
                   from include/linux/ceph/ceph_debug.h:7,
                   from fs/ceph/inode.c:2:
  In function 'fortify_memset_chk',
      inlined from 'netfs_i_context_init' at include/linux/netfs.h:326:2,
      inlined from 'ceph_alloc_inode' at fs/ceph/inode.c:463:2:
  include/linux/fortify-string.h:242:25: warning: call to '__write_overflow_field' declared with attribute warning: detected write beyond size of field (1st parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Wattribute-warning]
    242 |                         __write_overflow_field(p_size_field, size);
        |                         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fix this by embedding a struct inode into struct netfs_i_context (which
should perhaps be renamed to struct netfs_inode).  The struct inode
vfs_inode fields are then removed from the 9p, afs, ceph and cifs inode
structs and vfs_inode is then simply changed to "netfs.inode" in those
filesystems.

Further, rename netfs_i_context to netfs_inode, get rid of the
netfs_inode() function that converted a netfs_i_context pointer to an
inode pointer (that can now be done with &ctx->inode) and rename the
netfs_i_context() function to netfs_inode() (which is now a wrapper
around container_of()).

Most of the changes were done with:

  perl -p -i -e 's/vfs_inode/netfs.inode/'g \
        `git grep -l 'vfs_inode' -- fs/{9p,afs,ceph,cifs}/*.[ch]`

Kees suggested doing it with a pair structure[2] and a special
declarator to insert that into the network filesystem's inode
wrapper[3], but I think it's cleaner to embed it - and then it doesn't
matter if struct randomisation reorders things.

Dave Chinner suggested using a filesystem-specific VFS_I() function in
each filesystem to convert that filesystem's own inode wrapper struct
into the VFS inode struct[4].

Version #2:
 - Fix a couple of missed name changes due to a disabled cifs option.
 - Rename nfs_i_context to nfs_inode
 - Use "netfs" instead of "nic" as the member name in per-fs inode wrapper
   structs.

[ This also undoes commit 507160f46c55 ("netfs: gcc-12: temporarily
  disable '-Wattribute-warning' for now") that is no longer needed ]
