Subject: VFS2 gofer client

Updates #1198

Opening host pipes (by spinning in fdpipe) and host sockets is not yet
complete, and will be done in a future CL.

Major differences from VFS1 gofer client (sentry/fs/gofer), with varying levels
of backportability:

- "Cache policies" are replaced by InteropMode, which control the behavior of
  timestamps in addition to caching. Under InteropModeExclusive (analogous to
  cacheAll) and InteropModeWritethrough (analogous to cacheAllWritethrough),
  client timestamps are *not* written back to the server (it is not possible in
  9P or Linux for clients to set ctime, so writing back client-authoritative
  timestamps results in incoherence between atime/mtime and ctime). Under
  InteropModeShared (analogous to cacheRemoteRevalidating), client timestamps
  are not used at all (remote filesystem clocks are authoritative). cacheNone
  is translated to InteropModeShared + new option
  filesystemOptions.specialRegularFiles.

- Under InteropModeShared, "unstable attribute" reloading for permission
  checks, lookup, and revalidation are fused, which is feasible in VFS2 since
  gofer.filesystem controls path resolution. This results in a ~33% reduction
  in RPCs for filesystem operations compared to cacheRemoteRevalidating. For
  example, consider stat("/foo/bar/baz") where "/foo/bar/baz" fails
  revalidation, resulting in the instantiation of a new dentry:

  VFS1 RPCs:
  getattr("/")                          // fs.MountNamespace.FindLink() => fs.Inode.CheckPermission() => gofer.inodeOperations.check() => gofer.inodeOperations.UnstableAttr()
  walkgetattr("/", "foo") = fid1        // fs.Dirent.walk() => gofer.session.Revalidate() => gofer.cachePolicy.Revalidate()
  clunk(fid1)
  getattr("/foo")                       // CheckPermission
  walkgetattr("/foo", "bar") = fid2     // Revalidate
  clunk(fid2)
  getattr("/foo/bar")                   // CheckPermission
  walkgetattr("/foo/bar", "baz") = fid3 // Revalidate
  clunk(fid3)
  walkgetattr("/foo/bar", "baz") = fid4 // fs.Dirent.walk() => gofer.inodeOperations.Lookup
  getattr("/foo/bar/baz")               // linux.stat() => gofer.inodeOperations.UnstableAttr()

  VFS2 RPCs:
  getattr("/")                          // gofer.filesystem.walkExistingLocked()
  walkgetattr("/", "foo") = fid1        // gofer.filesystem.stepExistingLocked()
  clunk(fid1)
                                        // No getattr: walkgetattr already updated metadata for permission check
  walkgetattr("/foo", "bar") = fid2
  clunk(fid2)
  walkgetattr("/foo/bar", "baz") = fid3
                                        // No clunk: fid3 used for new gofer.dentry
                                        // No getattr: walkgetattr already updated metadata for stat()

- gofer.filesystem.unlinkAt() does not require instantiation of a dentry that
  represents the file to be deleted. Updates #898.

- gofer.regularFileFD.OnClose() skips Tflushf for regular files under
  InteropModeExclusive, as it's nonsensical to request a remote file flush
  without flushing locally-buffered writes to that remote file first.

- Symlink targets are cached when InteropModeShared is not in effect.

- p9.QID.Path (which is already required to be unique for each file within a
  server, and is accordingly already synthesized from device/inode numbers in
  all known gofers) is used as-is for inode numbers, rather than being mapped
  along with attr.RDev in the client to yet another synthetic inode number.

- Relevant parts of fsutil.CachingInodeOperations are inlined directly into
  gofer package code. This avoids having to duplicate part of its functionality
  in fsutil.HostMappable.
