getfattr(1) and setfattr(1) do multiple files.

attr(1) is not really the tool of choice anymore, and we only
maintain it for compatibility with existing XFS installations
and with IRIX. adding new options should be done to getfattr
and setfattr, if necessary (in this case, it seems to me that
no change is needed?).
