Keep track of xattr key & value references AFTER deduplication

This commit adds a reference count functionality to the string table
implementation and uses this functionality in the fstree code to
count how often each key and value is referenced by the deduplicated
Xattr blocks. This is needed to support deduplication through
out-of-band storage of xattrs.
