nfsd: add NFSD_CMD_CACHE_FLUSH netlink command

Add a new NFSD_CMD_CACHE_FLUSH generic netlink command that allows
userspace to flush the nfsd export caches (svc_export and expkey)
without writing to /proc/net/rpc/*/flush.

An optional NFSD_A_CACHE_FLUSH_MASK u32 attribute selects which caches
to flush (bit 1 = svc_export, bit 2 = expkey). If the attribute is
omitted, all nfsd caches are flushed.

This is used by exportfs to replace its /proc-based cache_flush() with a
netlink equivalent, with /proc fallback for older kernels.
