[PATCH v3 12/15] gen_init_cpio: set extended attributes for newcx format

gen_init_cpio creates CPIO archive according to cpio_list manifest file
that contains list of archive entries (one per line). To be able to
store extended attributes in newcx CPIO format we need to pass them via
cpio_list file.

One way of doing it would be to append xattrs to each entry line, but
"file" lines have a variable number of elements because of hardlinks. It
is not obvious how to mark end of hardlinks and start of xattrs in this
case.

This patch introduces a new entry type: "xattr". Each "xattr" line
specify one name=value pair. xattr values are applied to the next
non-xattr line. There can be multiple "xattr" lines before non-xattr
line.

It may be more logical to have xattr lines after corresponding
file entry, but it makes parsing a bit more complex and needs more
intrusive changes.

Xattr value is hex-encoded (see getfattr(1)). Plain string variant would
be easier to read, but special symbols have to be escaped. Hex encoding
is much simpler.
