Defined option "posix_nlink" to compute a Posix compliant st_nlink

When the mount option "posix_nlink" is used, the number of links
returned by stat complies with Posix : the legacy 8.3 names are not
taken into account, and the subdirectories are taken into account
for directories. This causes some overhead for recomputing the
number of links.
