libgfapi: send explicit lookups on inodes linked in readdirp

If the inode is linked via readdirp, then the consuners of gfapi which are using
handles (got either in lookup or readdirp) might not send an explicit lookup on
that object again (ex: NFS, samba, USS). If there is a replicate volume where
the replicas of the object are not in sync, then readdirp followed by fops might
lead data being served from the subvolume which is not in sync with latest
data. And since lookup is needed to trigger self-heal on that object the
consumers might keep getting wrong data until an explicit lookup is not done.

Fuse handles this situation by sending an explicit lookup by itself (fuse
xlator) on those inodes which are linked via readdirp, whenever a fop comes on
that inode.

The same procedure is done in gfapi as well to address this situation.
