Amir Goldstein cbb44f0935 ovl: auto generate uuid for new overlay filesystems
Add a new mount option uuid=auto, which is the default.

If a persistent UUID xattr is found it is used.

Otherwise, an existing ovelrayfs with copied up subdirs in upper dir
that was never mounted with uuid=on retains the null UUID.

A new overlayfs with no copied up subdirs, generates the persistent UUID
on first mount.
