fuse: add support for kernel writeback cache
- Added kernel-writeback-cache command line and xlator option for requesting utilisation of the writeback cache of the kernel in FUSE_INIT (see [1]). - Added attr-times-granularity command line and xlator option via which granularity of the {a,m,c}time in stat (attr) data that we support can be indicated to kernel. This is a means to avoid divergence of the attr times between kernel and userspace that could occur with writeback-cache, while still maintaining maximum time precision the FUSE server is capable of (see [2]). - Handling FATTR_CTIME flag in FUSE_SETATTR that indicates presence of ctime in setattr payload. Currently we cannot associate arbitrary ctimes to files on backend, so we just touch them to update their ctimes to current time. Having ctimes in setattr payload is also a side effect of writeback cache (see [3] and [4]).
