smb: client: allow creating special files via reparse points

Browse source 
Add support for creating special files (e.g. char/block devices,
sockets, fifos) via NFS reparse points on SMB2+, which are fully
supported by most SMB servers and documented in MS-FSCC.

smb2_get_reparse_inode() creates the file with a corresponding reparse
point buffer set in @iov through a single roundtrip to the server.
