[utils] Support xattr as well as pyxattr

Closes #9054

There are two xattr packages in Python, pyxattr [1] and xattr [2]. They
have different APIs.

In old days pyxattr supports Linux only and xattr supports Linux, Mac,
FreeBSD and Solaris, and pyxattr supports Linux only. Recently pyxattr
adds support for Mac OS X. [3]

An old version of [2] is shipped with Mac OS X. However, some Linux
distributions have pyxattr only, for example PLD-Linux [4] and old Arch
Linux. [5] As a result, supporting both is the way to go.
