Daniel Lee 91b587ba79 f2fs: Introduce linear search for dentries ...

This patch addresses an issue where some files in case-insensitive
directories become inaccessible due to changes in how the kernel function,
utf8_casefold(), generates case-folded strings from the commit 5c26d2f1d3
("unicode: Don't special case ignorable code points").

F2FS uses these case-folded names to calculate hash values for locating
dentries and stores them on disk. Since utf8_casefold() can produce
different output across kernel versions, stored hash values and newly
calculated hash values may differ. This results in affected files no
longer being found via the hash-based lookup.

To resolve this, the patch introduces a linear search fallback.
If the initial hash-based search fails, F2FS will sequentially scan the
directory entries.
