checksum verification but before looking at i_blocks.

If an inode fails checksum verification, don't stuff a copy of it in
the inode cache, because this can cause the library to fail to return
the "corrupt inode" error code.
In general, this happens if ext2fs_read_inode_full() is called twice
on an inode with an incorrect checksum. If fs->flags has
EXT2_FLAG_IGNORE_CSUM_ERRORS set during the first call and *unset*
during the second call, the cache hit during the second call fails to
return EXT2_ET_INODE_CSUM_INVALID as you'd expect. This happens
during fsck because the first read_inode call happens as part of
check_blocks and the second call happens during inode checksum
revalidation. A file system with a slightly corrupt non-extent inode
will trigger this.
While we're at it, make the inode read function consistent with the
rest of libext2fs -- copy the metadata object into the caller's buffer
even if it fails checksum verification. This will help e2fsck avoid a
double re-read later on down the line.

When we need to modify the "ignore checksum error" behavior flag to
get us past a library call, it's possible that the library call can
result in other flag bits being changed. Therefore, it is not correct
to restore unconditionally the previous flags value, since this will
have unintended side effects on the other fs->flags; nor is it correct
to assume that we can unconditionally set (or clear) the "ignore csum
error" flag bit. Therefore, we must merge the previous value of the
"ignore csum error" flag with the value of flags after the call.
Note that we want to leave checksum verification on as much as
possible because doing so exposes e2fsck bugs where two metadata
blocks are "sharing" the same disk block, and attempting to fix one
before relocating the other causes major filesystem damage. The
damage is much more obvious when a previously checked piece of
metadata suddenly fails in a subsequent pass.
The modifications to the pass 2, 3, and 3A code are justified as
follows: When e2fsck encounters a block of directory entries and
cannot find the placeholder entry at the end that contains the
checksum, it will try to insert the placeholder. If that fails, it
will schedule the directory for a pass 3A reconstruction. Until that
happens, we don't want directory block writing (pass 2), block
iteration (pass 3), or block reading (pass 3A) to fail due to checksum
errors, because failing to find the placeholder is itself a checksum
verification error, which causes e2fsck to abort without fixing
anything.
The e2fsck call to ext2fs_read_bitmaps must never fail due to a
checksum error because e2fsck subsequently (a) verifies the bitmaps
itself; or (b) decides that they don't match what has been observed,
and rewrites them.

Add a new behavior flag to the inode scan functions; when specified,
this flag will do some simple sanity checking of entire inode table
blocks. If all the checksums are ok, we can skip checksum
verification on individual inodes later on. If more than half of the
inodes look "insane" (bad extent tree root or checksum failure) then
ext2fs_get_next_inode_full() can return a special status code
indicating that what's in the buffer is probably garbage.
When e2fsck' inode scan encounters the 'inode is garbage' return code
it'll offer to zap the inode straightaway instead of trying to recover
anything. This replaces the previous behavior of asking to zap
anything with a checksum error (strict_csum).

The ext2fs_read_inode_full() function should not use fs->read_inode()
if the caller has requested more than the base 128 byte inode
structure and the inode size is greater than 128 bytes. Otherwise the
caller won't get all of the bytes that they were asking for, since
there's no way for the fs->read_inode override function can know what
the size of the buffer passed to ext2fs_read_inode_full().

The changes to support metadata checksum allocated a single large
array for all of the inodes in the inode cache. This is slightly more
efficient, but given that the inode cache is small (only 4 inodes) it
doesn't really have that much benefit. The problem with doing things
this way is that the memory overruns, such as the one fixed in commit
43c4910371, do not get detected by valgrind.

Create a new function, io_channel_alloc_buf() which allocates I/O

The DEFS line in MCONFIG had gotten so long that it exceeded 4k, and
this was starting to cause some tools heartburn. It also made "make
V=1" almost useless, since trying to following the individual commands
run by make was lost in the noise of all of the defines.
So fix this by putting the configure-generated defines in lib/config.h
and the directory pathnames to lib/dirpaths.h.
In addition, clean up some vestigal defines in configure.in and in the
Makefiles to further shorten the cc command lines.

In inode_open(), if the allocation of &io fails, we go to cleanup
and dereference io to test io->name, which is a bug.
Similarly in undo_open() if allocation of &data fails, we
go to cleanup and dereference data to test data->real.
In the test_open() case we explicitly set retval to the only
possible error return from ext2fs_get_mem(), so remove that
for tidiness.
The other changes just make make earlier returns go through
the error goto for consistency.
In many cases we returned directly from the first error, but
"goto cleanup" etc for every subsequent error. In some
cases this leads to "impossible" tests such as:
if (ptr)
ext2fs_free_mem(&ptr)
on paths where ptr cannot be null because we would have
returned directly earlier, and Coverity flags this.
This isn't really indicative of an error in most cases, but
I think it can be clearer to always exit through the error goto
if it's used later in the function.

This addresses a potential security vulnerability where an untrusted
filesystem can be corrupted in such a way that a program using
libext2fs will allocate a buffer which is far too small. This can
lead to either a crash or potentially a heap-based buffer overflow
crash. No known exploits exist, but main concern is where an
untrusted user who possesses privileged access in a guest Xen
environment could corrupt a filesystem which is then accessed by the
pygrub program, running as root in the dom0 host environment, thus
allowing the untrusted user to gain privileged access in the host OS.

This feature is initially intended for testing purposes; it allows an
ext2/ext3 developer to create very large filesystems using sparse files
where most of the block groups are not initialized and so do not require
much disk space. Eventually it could be used as a way of speeding up
mke2fs and e2fsck for large filesystem, but that would be best done by
adding an RO_COMPAT extension to the filesystem to allow the inode table
to be lazily initialized on a per-block basis, instead of being entirely initialized
or entirely unused on a per-blockgroup basis.
