fuse: add reference counting to fuse_file
Make lifetime of 'struct fuse_file' independent from 'struct file' by adding a
reference counter and destructor.
This will enable asynchronous page writeback, where it cannot be guaranteed,
that the file is not released while a request with this file handle is being
served.
The actual RELEASE request is only sent when there are no more references to
the fuse_file.
