fuse: add benchmarking support for FUSE

This change adds the following:
-  Add support for containerizing syscall tests for FUSE
-  Mount tmpfs in the container so we can run benchmarks against it
-  Run the server in a background process
-  benchmarks for fuse syscall

+## Benchmark FUSE
+
+FUSE benchmark makes FUSE syscall inside docker container to make sure required
+environment conditions are met - such as having the right libraries to start a
+FUSE server.
+
+### Setup
+
+To run benchmark:
+
+1. Make sure you have `Docker` installed.
+2. Download all docker images `make load-all-images`.
+3. Config `runsc` docker runtime to have VFS2 and FUSE supported.
+(e.g.  `make configure RUNTIME=runsc ARGS="--vfs2 --fuse ..." ...`)
+
+You should now have a runtime with the following options configured in
+`/etc/docker/daemon.json`
+```
+"runsc": {
+            "path": "path/to/your/runsc",
+            "runtimeArgs": [
+                "--vfs2",
+                "--fuse"
+                ... 
+            ]
+        }
+```
+
+### Running benchmarks
+With above setup, benchmark can be run with following command
+```
+bazel test --test_output=all --cache_test_results=no --test_arg=-test.bench= //path/to:target
+```
+For example: if you want to run stat test
+```
+bazel test --test_output=all --cache_test_results=no --test_arg=-test.bench= //test/fuse:open_benchmark_runsc_ptrace_vfs2_fuse_container
+```
+
+Note:
+- test target need to have `vfs2_fuse_container` to run in container with `vfs2` and `fuse` enabled
+- `test_output` set to `all` to view the result in terminal
+- `--cache_test_results` set to `no` to avoid cached benchmark
+
+### Use your fuse server
+
+To use your own FUSE server, change the `images/basic/fuse/Dockerfile` to compile your FUSE server into the container and name it `server-bin`.
