Subject: [RFC 03/21] vfs: Add IS_ACL() and IS_RICHACL() tests

The vfs does not apply the umask for file systems that support acls. The test
used for this used to be called IS_POSIXACL(). Switch to a new IS_ACL() test to
check for either posix acls or richacls instead. Add a new MS_RICHACL flag and
IS_RICHACL() test for richacls alone. The IS_POSIXACL() test is still needed
by file systems that specifically support POSIX ACLs, like nfsd.
