Now that the size of the reparse point attribute is no longer used by
the FUSE drivers to populate st_size for symlinks and junctions, it no
longer needs to be returned by ntfs_make_symlink().

valid_reparse_data() would read past the end of the reparse point buffer
if it was passed a malformed reparse point that had the tag for a
mountpoint or a symlink but had a data buffer smaller than expected.
Fix this by validating the buffer size.

A number of functions in libntfs-3g are generally useful, but are tied to
extended attributes support and are not included when the library is
built on platforms without extended attributes support.
This proposal updates libntfs-3g to always include these functions.
The only tricky part is dealing with the XATTR_CREATE and XATTR_REPLACE
flags. These flags are defined in <sys/xattr.h>, so they must be
redefined on platforms without extended attributes support.

The new "system compression" files used by Windows 10 make use of reparse
points to record the compression parameters, and a specific named data
stream is used to store the compressed data. With this patch, processing
of reparse points can be done by an external plugin only loaded as needed.
Junctions and symlinks, which are also based on reparse points, are now
processed by "internal plugins".
When looking up the lowercase equivalent of a Unicode character in
ntfs_fix_file_name, no byte swapping was performed on the ntfschar used
as index into the 'locase' array. This would lead to very strange
results on big-endian systems.
Windows requires non-Microsoft reparse points (identified by having bit
31 of the reparse tag clear) to have a 16-byte GUID following the regular
reparse point header. This GUID is not, and cannot, be included in the
"reparse data length" field.

When translating Windows-type symlinks to Linux ones, the directory
separator has to be changed from '\' to '/'. The change was wrong
for multiple "..\" and ".\"
Replace the obsolete definition of reparse tags in layout.h by the
current definitions from msdn, and use them in reparse.c instead of
redefining them.
When the target of a junction or a Windows-type symlink references another
junction or symlink, the search for the full path on the current partition
and its translation for case-sensitive access is interrupted. The target can
now be dereferenced, provided the end of the path needed no translation.
When ignore_case is set, the file names are returned lower-case in
readdir() in order to make file name completions possible. This patch
does the same for junction points to avoid directory locks when used
with non-matching names.
