    * libglusterfs changes to add new fop

    * Fuse changes:
      - Changes in fuse bridge xlator to receive and send responses

    * posix changes to perform the op on the backend filesystem

    * protocol and rpc changes for sending and receiving the fop

    * gfapi changes for performing the fop

    * tools: glfs-copy-file-range tool for testing copy_file_range fop

      - Although, copy_file_range support has been added to the upstream
	    fuse kernel module, no release has been made yet of a kernel
        which contains the support. It is expected to come in the
        upcoming release of linux-4.20

        So, as of now, executing copy_file_range fop on a fused based
        filesystem results in fuse kernel module sending read on the
	    source fd and write on the destination fd.

	    Therefore a small gfapi based tool has been written to be able
        test the copy_file_range fop. This tool is similar (in functionality)
	    to the example program given in copy_file_range man page.

	    So, running regular copy_file_range on a fuse mount point and
	    running gfapi based glfs-copy-file-range tool gives some idea about
	    how fast, the copy_file_range (or reflink) can be.

	    On the local machine this was the result obtained.

	    mount -t glusterfs workstation:new /mnt/glusterfs
	    [root@workstation ~]# cd /mnt/glusterfs/
	    [root@workstation glusterfs]# ls
	    file
	    [root@workstation glusterfs]# cd
	    [root@workstation ~]# time /tmp/a.out /mnt/glusterfs/file /mnt/glusterfs/new
	    real  0m6.495s
	    user  0m0.000s
	    sys   0m1.439s
	    [root@workstation ~]# time glfs-copy-file-range $(hostname) new /tmp/glfs.log /file /rrr
	    OPEN_SRC: opening /file is success
	    OPEN_DST: opening /rrr is success
	    FSTAT_SRC: fstat on /rrr is success
	    copy_file_range successful

        real  0m0.309s
        user  0m0.039s
        sys   0m0.017s

        This tool needs following arguments
         1) hostname
         2) volume name
         3) log file path
         4) source file path (relative to the gluster volume root)
         5) destination file path (relative to the gluster volume root)

        "glfs-copy-file-range &lt;hostname&gt; &lt;volume&gt; &lt;log file path&gt; &lt;source&gt; &lt;destination&gt;"

      - Added a testcase as well to run glfs-copy-file-range tool

    * io-stats changes to capture the fop for profiling

    * NOTE:

      - Added conditional check to see whether the copy_file_range syscall
        is available or not. If not, then return ENOSYS.

      - Added conditional check for kernel minor version in fuse_kernel.h
        and fuse-bridge while referring to copy_file_range. And the kernel
        minor version is kept as it is. i.e. 24. Increment it in future
        when there is a kernel release which contains the support for
        copy_file_range fop in fuse kernel module.

    * The document which contains a writeup on this enhancement can be found at

This patch fixes below issues in gfapi lease code-path
* 'glfs_setfsleasid' should allow NULL input to be
   able to reset leaseid
* Applications should be allowed to (un)register for
  upcall notifications of type GLFS_EVENT_LEASE_RECALL
* APIs added to read contents of GLFS_EVENT_LEASE_RECALL
  argument which is of type "struct glfs_upcall_lease"

It doesn't make sense to calloc (allocate and clear) memory
when the code right away fills that memory with data.
It may be optimized by the compiler, or have a microscopic
performance improvement.

In some cases, also changed allocation size to be sizeof some
struct or type instead of a pointer - easier to read.
In some cases, removed redundant strlen() calls by saving the result
into a variable.

1. Only done for the straightforward cases. There's room for improvement.
2. Please review carefully, especially for string allocation, with the
terminating NULL string.

Only compile-tested!

As nfs-ganesha, a wcc data contains pre/post attributes is return
in read/write rpc reply. nfs-ganesha get those attributes by
two getattr between the real read/write right now.

But, gluster has return pre/post attributes from glusterfsd,
those attributes are skipped in syncop/gfapi, if gfapi return them,
the upper user (nfs-ganesha) can use them directly without any
duplicate getattr.

The current API for byte-range locks [glfs_posix_lock()] doesn't
allow applications to specify whether it is advisory or mandatory
type locks. This particular change is to introduce an extended
byte-range lock API with an additional argument for including
the byte-range lock mode to be one among advisory(default) or
mandatory. Patch also includes a gfapi test case which make use
of this new api to acquire mandatory locks.
