generic: test creating and removing symlink xattrs
This began as a regression test for the issues identified in "xfs: allow
symlinks with short remote targets". To summarize, the kernel XFS code
does not convert a remote symlink back to a shortform symlink after
deleting the attr fork. Recent attempts to tighten validation have
flagged this incorrectly, so we need a regression test to focus on this
dusty corner of the codebase.
However, there's nothing in here that's xfs-specific so it's a generic
test.
