Kernel: Make Inode::lookup() return a RefPtr<Inode>

Previously this API would return an InodeIdentifier, which meant that
there was a race in path resolution where an inode could be unlinked
in between finding the InodeIdentifier for a path component, and
actually resolving that to an Inode object.

Attaching a test that would quickly trip an assertion before.

Test: Kernel/path-resolution-race.cpp
