Add new table for handling *xattrat at_flags. All of these new syscalls have more than 4 args, so there is a limit on what we can interpret and what we can't.
Regarding testing, I took the master branch and compiled it on fedora-rawhide, where kernel 6.13 is already in place. I invoked all syscalls using custom C programs that directly call the syscalls via the syscall() function.
Part of the patch is a new table, which tracks the so-called "at_flags" arg.

syscalls will need additional handling altogether with other existing syscalls used for querying extended attributes. That is gonna be part of another patch.
