namei: add mapping aware lookup helper
Various filesystems rely on the lookup_one_len() helper to lookup a single path component relative to a well-known starting point. Allow such filesystems to support idmapped mounts by adding a version of this helper to take the idmap into account when calling inode_permission(). This change is a required to let btrfs (and other filesystems) support idmapped mounts.
