xfs: make attr lookup returns consistent

Shortform, leaf and remote value attr value retrieval return
different values for success. This makes it more complex to handle
actual errors xfs_attr_get() as some errors mean success and some
mean failure. Make the return values consistent for success and
failure consistent for all attribute formats.
