ntfs3: fix mount failure on volumes with fragmented MFT bitmap
When the $MFT's $BITMAP attribute is fragmented across multiple MFT
records (base record + extent records), ntfs_fill_super() fails with
-ENOENT during wnd_init() because the MFT bitmap's run list only
contains runs from the base MFT record.
The issue is that wnd_init() (which calls wnd_rescan()) is invoked
before ni_load_all_mi(), so the extent MFT records containing
additional $BITMAP runs have not been loaded yet. When wnd_rescan()
tries to look up a VCN beyond the base record's runs, run_lookup_entry()
fails and returns -ENOENT.
This affects NTFS volumes with a large or heavily fragmented MFT, which
is common on long-used Windows systems where the MFT bitmap's run list
doesn't fit in the base MFT record and spills into extent records.
Fix this by:
1. Moving ni_load_all_mi() before wnd_init() so all extent records
are available.
2. After ni_load_all_mi(), iterating through the attribute list to
find any $BITMAP extent attributes and unpacking their runs into
sbi->mft.bitmap.run before wnd_init() is called.
Tested on a 664GB NTFS volume with 86 MFT bitmap runs spanning
records 0 (VCN 0-105) and 17 (VCN 106-165). Before the fix, mount
fails with -ENOENT. After the fix, mount succeeds and all read/write
operations work correctly. Stress-tested with 8 test categories
(large file integrity, 10K small files, copy, move, delete/recreate
cycles, concurrent writes, deep directories, overwrite persistence).
