When you have stored stream data in an xattr, do you want that to be  
visible to the xattr or EA APIs?

I darwin_streams, I split the xattr list into 2 namespaces. If the  
first character of the xattr name was ':', it was a stream, otherwise  
it was just a regular xattr. This prevents the streaminfo call  
returning xattrs that do not hold streams data, and it prevents the EA  
and xattr APIs returning xattrs that do hold streams data.
