Enhance mmfindinode Performance and Provide SDK API for Path Query by Inode

This RFE requests enhancements to the mmfindinode utility in the GPFS/Spectrum Scale filesystem to significantly improve its performance. Additionally, it proposes the development of an SDK API that allows querying file paths based on inode numbers programmatically, hence offering a more efficient and flexible approach for applications and automation tools that interact with the GPFS/Spectrum Scale filesystem.
