erofs: implement metadata compression

Thanks to the meta buffer infrastructure, metadata-compressed inodes are
just read from the metabox inode instead of the blockdevice (or backing
file) inode.

The same is true for shared extended attributes.

When metadata compression is enabled, inode numbers are divided from
on-disk NIDs because of non-LTS 32-bit application compatibility.
