f2fs: dirty directory inodes on mtime/ctime update

Xfstests generic/547 sometimes fail with mismatched directory metadata
before and after a power failure. This happens because when a directory
entry is added, renamed, or deleted, its mtime and ctime are updated and
the inode is marked dirty via
f2fs_mark_inode_dirty_sync(dir, sync=false). The sync=false flag means
the dirty inode is not added to the global DIRTY_META list. Therefore,
subsequent checkpoints skip flushing these updated directory blocks,
causing directory timestamps to revert to stale values after a sudden
power failure.

Address this by changing the dirtying parameter to sync=true during
directory entry mutations and renames. This forces F2FS to immediately
queue the updated directory blocks on the global DIRTY_META list,
ensuring timestamps are committed to checkpoints.
