anon_inode: use a proper mode internally
This allows the VFS to not trip over anonymous inodes and we can add
asserts based on the mode into the vfs. When we report it to userspace
we can simply hide the mode to avoid regressions. I've audited all
direct callers of alloc_anon_inode() and only secretmen overrides i_mode
and i_op inode operations but it already uses a regular file.
