fuse: introduce FUSE_PASSTHROUGH capability

Browse source 
FUSE_PASSTHROUGH capability to passthrough FUSE operations to backing
files will be made available with kernel config CONFIG_FUSE_PASSTHROUGH.

When requesting FUSE_PASSTHROUGH, userspace needs to specify the
max_stack_depth that is allowed for FUSE on top of backing files.

Introduce the flag FOPEN_PASSTHROUGH and backing_id to fuse_open_out
argument that can be used when replying to OPEN request, to setup
passthrough of io operations on the fuse inode to a backing file.

Introduce a refcounted fuse_backing object that will be used to
associate an open backing file with a fuse inode.
