Robert Yang b25ddc5ed5 misc/create_inode.c: create symlink
The do_symlink_internal() is used for creating symlinks, most of the
code are from debugfs/debugfs.c, the debugfs/debugfs.c will be modified
to use this function.

Robert Yang 052064b919 misc/create_inode.c: copy files recursively
Use opendir() and readdir() to read the native directory, then use
lstat() to identify the file type and call the corresponding function to
add the file to the filesystem, call the populate_fs() recursively if it
is a directory.

NOTE: the libext2fs can't create the socket file.

Robert Yang 0d4deba22e mke2fs: add the ability to copy files from a given directory
We will add a -d option which will be used for adding the files from a
given directory to the filesystem, it is similiar to genext2fs, but
genext2fs doesn't fully support ext4.

* We already have the basic operations in debugfs:
  - Copy regular file
  - Create directory
  - Create symlink
  - Create special file

  We will move these operations into create_inode.h and create_inode.c,
  then let both mke2fs and debugfs use them.

* What we need to do are:
  - Copy the given directory recursively, this will be done by the
    populate_fs()
  - Set the owner, mode and other informations
  - Handle the hard links

TODO:
  - The libext2fs can't create the socket file (S_IFSOCK), do we have a
    plan to support it ?
