fscrypt: calculate NUL-padding length in one place only
Currently, when encrypting a filename (either a real filename or a symlink target) we calculate the amount of NUL-padding twice: once before encryption and once during encryption in fname_encrypt(). It is needed before encryption to allocate the needed buffer size as well as calculate the size the symlink target will take up on-disk before creating the symlink inode. Calculating the size during encryption as well is redundant. Remove this redundancy by always calculating the exact size beforehand, and making fname_encrypt() just add as much NUL padding as is needed to fill the output buffer.
