Instead of caching the ucred reference, just go ahead and eat the
decerement and increment of the refcount. Now that Giant is pushed down
into crfree(), we no longer have to get Giant in the common case. In the
case when we are actually free'ing the ucred, we would normally free it on
the next kernel entry, so the cost there is not new, just in a different
place. This also removse td_cache_ucred from struct thread. This is
still only done #ifdef DIAGNOSTIC.

- Add a cred_free_thread() function (conditional on DIAGNOSTICS) that drops
a per-thread ucred reference to be used in debugging code when leaving
the kernel.
improvements.
1) If deleting an entry results in a chain of deleted slots ending in an
empty slot, then we can be a bit more aggressive about marking slots as
empty.
2) The last stage of the FNV hash is to xor the last byte of data
into the hash. This means that filenames which differ only in
the last byte will be placed close to one another in the hash
table, which forms longer chains. To work around this common
case, we also hash in the address of the dirhash structure.

low hanging fruit for the repair of securelevel checking of linking and
unlinking files from within jails. There is more to be done here.
