V3 minixfs: add missing directory type checking
There are a few places in the Minix FS code where the "inode" field of a minix_dir_entry is used without checking first to see if the dirent is really a minix3_dir_entry. The inode number in a V1/V2 dirent is 16 bits, whereas that in a V3 dirent is 32 bits. Accessing it as a 16 bit field when it really should be accessed as a 32 bit field probably kinda sorta works on a little-endian machine, but leads to some rather odd behaviour on big-endian machines.
