xfs: fix dir3 freespace block corruption



When the directory freespace index grows to a second block (2017
4k data blocks in the directory), the initialisation of the second
new block header goes wrong. The write verifier fires a corruption
error indicating that the block number in the header is zero. This
was being tripped by xfs/110.

The problem is that the initialisation of the new block is done just
fine in xfs_dir3_free_get_buf(), but the caller then users a dirv2
structure to zero on-disk header fields that xfs_dir3_free_get_buf()
has already zeroed. These lined up with the block number in the dir
v3 header format.

While looking at this, I noticed that the struct xfs_dir3_free_hdr()
had 4 bytes of padding in it that wasn't defined as padding or being
zeroed by the initialisation. Add a pad field declaration and fully
zero the on disk and in-core headers in xfs_dir3_free_get_buf() so
that this is never an issue in the future. Note that this doesn't
change the on-disk layout, just makes the 32 bits of padding in the
layout explicit.
