Use mapped device number + topmost inode number for all files in VFS2 overlay.
Before this CL, VFS2's overlayfs uses a single private device number and an autoincrementing generated inode number for directories; this is consistent with Linux's overlayfs in the non-samefs non-xino case. However, this breaks some applications more consistently than on Linux due to more aggressive caching of Linux overlayfs dentries. Switch from using mapped device numbers + the topmost layer's inode number for just non-copied-up non-directory files, to doing so for all files. This still allows directory dev/ino numbers to change across copy-up, but otherwise keeps them consistent. Fixes #5545: ``` $ docker run --runtime=runsc-vfs2-overlay --rm ubuntu:focal bash -c "mkdir -p 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8 && rm -rf 1 && echo done" done ``` PiperOrigin-RevId: 359350716
