[JFFS2] Improve read_inode memory usage, v2.

We originally used to read every node and allocate a jffs2_tmp_dnode_info
structure for each, before processing them in (reverse) version order
and discarding the ones which are obsoleted by later nodes.

With huge logfiles, this behaviour caused memory problems. For example, a
file involved in OLPC trac #1292 has 1822391 nodes, and would cause the XO
machine to run out of memory during the first stage of read_inode().

Instead of just inserting nodes into a tree in version order as we find
them, we now put them into a tree in order of their offset within the
file, which allows us to immediately discard nodes which are completely
obsoleted.

We don't use a full tree with 'fragments' pointing to the real data
structure, as we do in the normal fragtree. We sort only on the start
address, and add an 'overlapped' flag to the tmp_dnode_info to indicate
that the node in question is (partially) overlapped by another.

When the scan is complete, we start at the end of the file, adding each
node to a real fragtree as before. Where the node is non-overlapped, we
just add it (it doesn't matter that it's not the latest version; there is
no overlap). When the node at the end of the tree _is_ overlapped, we sort
it and all its overlapping nodes into version order and then add them to
the fragtree in that order.

This 'early discard' reduces the peak allocation of tmp_dnode_info
structures from 1.8M to a mere 62872 (3.5%) in the degenerate case
referenced above.

This version of the patch also correctly rememembers the highest node
version# seen for an inode when it's scanned.
