[PATCH 7/8] xfsdump: path lookup cache must be thread specific

The xfsrestore path lookup routine (maps an ino + generation number to a
pathname) contains a cache for fast lookups of consecutive files in the
same parent directory. This cache either needs to be protected by a lock
or a cache is needed per thread. I took the latter approach since it
doesn't add lock contention and it increases the cache hit rate (it's
relatively unlikely that each stream is processing files in the same
directory).
