Terje Malmedal reports that a fuse filesystem with 32 million inodes
on a machine with lots of memory can take up to 30 minutes to process
FORGET requests when all those inodes are evicted from the icache.

To solve this, create a BATCH_FORGET request that allows up to about
8000 FORGET requests to be sent in a single message.

This request is only sent if userspace supports interface version 7.16
or later, otherwise fall back to sending individual FORGET messages.
