A count with the number of hard links (nlink) is not implemented. This causes the stat information to be incomplete.

JFFS does not store the number of hard links (nlink) on disk; rather, it is calculated when the filesystem is scanned.

Count the number of hard links when scanning the filesystem, and cache it.
Directories start with two, and have one additional link for each subdirectory.
Update stat information for JFFS in dissect.target.
