dbgerr.py and dbgtag.py have proven to be incredibly useful for quick
debugging/introspection, so I figured why not have more of that.
My favorite part is being able to quickly see all flags set on an open
file handle:
(gdb) p file.o.o.flags
$2 = 24117517
(gdb) !./scripts/dbgflags.py o 24117517
LFS_O_WRONLY 0x00000001 Open a file as write only
LFS_O_CREAT 0x00000004 Create a file if it does not exist
LFS_O_EXCL 0x00000008 Fail if a file already exists
LFS_O_DESYNC 0x00000100 Do not sync or recieve file updates
LFS_o_REG 0x01000000 Type = regular-file
LFS_o_UNFLUSH 0x00100000 File's data does not match disk
LFS_o_UNSYNC 0x00200000 File's metadata does not match disk
LFS_o_UNCREAT 0x00400000 File does not exist yet
The only concern is if dbgflags.py falls out-of-sync often, I suspect
flag encoding will have quite a bit more churn than flags/tags. But we
can always drop this script in the future if this turns into a problem.

While poking around this also ended up with a bunch of other small
changes:
- Added LFS_*_MODE masks for consistency with other "type<->flag
embeddings"
- Added compat flag comments
- Adopted lowercase prefix for internal flags (LFS_o_ZOMBIE), though
not sure if I'll keep this yet...
- Tweaked dbgerr.py to also match ERR_ prefixes and to ignore case
