[PATCH] fuse: add POSIX file locking support



This patch adds POSIX file locking support to the fuse interface.

This implementation doesn't keep any locking state in kernel.  Unlocking on
close() is handled by the FLUSH message, which now contains the lock owner id.

Mandatory locking is not supported.  The filesystem may enfoce mandatory
locking in userspace if needed.
