fuse: add "resolve-gids" mount option to overcome 32-groups limit

Add a --resolve-gids commandline option to the glusterfs binary. This
option gets set when executing "mount -t glusterfs -o resolve-gids ...".

This option is most useful in combination with the "acl" mount option.
POSIX ACL permission checking is done on the FUSE-client side to improve
performance (in addition to the checking on the bricks).

The fuse-bridge reads /proc/$PID/status by default, and this file
contains maximum 32 groups. Any local (client-side) permission checking
that requires more than the first 32 groups will fail.

By enabling the "resolve-gids" option, the fuse-bridge will call
getgrouplist() to retrieve all the groups from the user accessing the
mountpoint. This is comparable to how "nfs.server-aux-gids" works.

Note that when a user belongs to more than ~93 groups, the volume option
server.manage-gids needs to be enabled too. Without this option, the
RPC-layer will need to reduce the number of groups to make them fit in
the RPC-header.
