Allow NFS to report the i_version in getattr requests. Since the cost to
fetch it is relatively cheap, do it unconditionally and just set the
flag if it looks like it's valid. Also, conditionally enable the
MONOTONIC flag when the server reports its change attr type as such.

NFS (and Ceph),?do not set the SB_I_VERSION flag and they don't use the
QUERIED bit. These are "server managed" implementations of i_version.
The server is responsible for incrementing the value, and we just store
the result in the i_version field and present it when needed. That's why
the patch for NFS is using the "raw" API.

I followed suit from nfs_inode_attrs_cmp(). It seems to treat any value
that isn't UNDEFINED as MONOTONIC, though it does use a less strict
comparator for NFS4_CHANGE_TYPE_IS_TIME_METADATA. It may make sense to
carve that out as an exception.
This is probably an indicator that we need a more strict definition for
STATX_ATTR_VERSION_MONOTONIC.
