[PATCH v4] xfs: test reproducible builds

[Luca Di Maio]

With the addition of the `-p` populate option, SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH and
DETERMINISTIC_SEED support, it is possible to create fully reproducible
pre-populated filesystems. We should test them here.

v1 -> v2:
- Changed test group from parent to mkfs
- Fixed PROTO_DIR to point to a new dir
- Populate PROTO_DIR with relevant file types
- Move from md5sum to sha256sum
v2 -> v3
- Properly check if mkfs.xfs supports SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH and
  DETERMINISTIC_SEED
- use fsstress program to generate the PROTO_DIR content
- simplify test output
v3 -> v4
- Add _cleanup function

The start of this function needs to copy the code from the _cleanup
function in common/preable, as Dave said elsewhere.  Otherwise this
looks ok to me.
