booster: Add VMP-based open support
In brief, when an open is called the VMP-based open is called first. If that fails, the fallback is the Mount-Point Bypass(MBP) technique which uses entended attributes to determine if the given path is a gluster mount. If it is, it goes ahead to create a glusterfsclient handle. All subsequent calls to this real mount point get redirected to the glusterfsclient handle. The other fallback is the actual open syscall on the local file system itself. This happens when the absence of an extended attribute tells us that the path is not even a glusterfs mount point.
