fanotify: split version into version and metadata_len 

To implement per event type optional headers we are interested in
knowing how long the metadata structure is.  This patch slits the __u32
version field into a __u8 version and a __u16 metadata_len field (with
__u8 left over).  This should allow for backwards compat ABI.
