Description

It would be useful if "lfs find" could check/match xattrs on files.

This should use "--xattr <name>" to match files that have a <name> xattr, and "--xattr-match <name>=<value>", where <name> and <value> are shell patterns that can match arbitrary text strings in the xattr. The output would be printed in plain text with escaped control characters.
