[RFC][PATCH 1/2] smack: Retrieve transmuting information in smack_inode_getsecurity()

From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu at huawei.com>

Enhance smack_inode_getsecurity() to retrieve the value for
SMACK64TRANSMUTE from the inode security blob, similarly to SMACK64.

This helps to display accurate values in the situation where the security
labels come from mount options and not from xattrs.
