fs: simplify iget & friends
Merge get_new_inode/get_new_inode_fast into iget5_locked/iget_locked as those were the only callers. Remove the internal ifind/ifind_fast helpers - ifind_fast only had a single caller, and ifind had two callers wanting it to do different things. Also clean up the comments in this area to focus on information important to a developer trying to use it, instead of overloading them with implementation details.
