[XFS] Update c/mtime correctly on truncates
XFS changes the c/mtime of an inode when truncating it to the same size. The c/mtime is only supposed to change if the size is changed. Not to be confused with ftruncate, where the c/mtime is supposed to be changed even if the size is not changed. The Linux VFS encodes this semantic difference in the flags it sends down to ->setattr, which XFS currently ignores. We need to make XFS pay attention to the VFS flags and hence Do The Right Thing.
