fs-verity introduced inode flag for inodes with enabled fs-verity on them. This patch adds FS_XFLAG_VERITY file attribute which can be retrieved with FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR ioctl() and file_getattr() syscall. This flag is read-only and can not be set with corresponding set ioctl() and file_setattr(). The FS_IOC_SETFLAGS requires file to be opened for writing which is not allowed for verity files. The FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR and file_setattr() clears this flag from the user input. As this is now common flag for both flag interfaces (flags/xflags) add it to overlapping flags list to exclude it from overwrite.
