xfs: add CRC checks to the AGF
The AGF already has some self identifying fields (e.g. the sequence number) so we only need to add the uuid to it to identify the filesystem it belongs to. The location is fixed based on the sequence number, so there's no need to add a block number, either. Hence the only additional fields are the CRC and LSN fields. These are unlogged, so place some space between the end of the logged fields and them so that future expansion of the AGF for logged fields can be placed adjacent to the existing logged fields and hence not complicate the field-derived range based logging we currently have. Based originally on a patch from myself, modified further by Christoph Hellwig and then modified again to fit into the verifier structure with additional fields by myself. The multiple signed-off-by tags indicate the age and history of this patch.
