fs/pidfs: make 'lsof' happy with our inode changes

pidfs started using much saner inodes in commit b28ddcc32d8f ("pidfs:
convert to path_from_stashed() helper"), but that exposed the fact that
lsof had some knowledge of just how odd our old anon_inode usage was.

For example, legacy anon_inodes hadn't even initialized the inode type
in the inode mode, so everything had a type of zero.

So sane tools like 'stat' would report these files as "weird file", but
'lsof' instead used that (together with the name of the link in proc) to
notice that it's an anonymous inode, and used it to detect pidfd files.

Let's keep our internal new sane inode model, but mask the file type
bits at 'stat()' time in the getattr() function we already have, and by
making the dentry name match what lsof expects too.

This keeps our internal models sane, but should make user space see the
same old odd behavior.
