Add ability to sqfs_dir_writer to create an export table
If the dir writer is used to create the directory table, it neccessarily sees every single inode number and coresponding location for all inodes that are referenced by the filesystem tree. This means it can easily collect that information internally to create an export table later on. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
