dump the stream metadata, one line per operation

Does not require the *path* parameter. The filesystem remains unchanged.
Each stream command is on one line in the form of *key=value* and separated
by one or more spaces. Values that contain special characters (like
paths or extended attributes) are encoded in C-like way, e.g. *'\\n'* or
octal escape sequence like *'\\NNN'* where N is the char value. Same encoding
as is used in */proc* files.
