fuse: prepare for opening file in passthrough mode



In preparation for opening file in passthrough mode, store the
fuse_open_out argument in ff->args to be passed into fuse_file_io_open()
with the optional backing_id member.

This will be used for setting up passthrough to backing file on open
reply with FOPEN_PASSTHROUGH flag and a valid backing_id.

Opening a file in passthrough mode may fail for several reasons, such as
missing capability, conflicting open flags or inode in caching mode.
Return EIO from fuse_file_io_open() in those cases.

The combination of FOPEN_PASSTHROUGH and FOPEN_DIRECT_IO is allowed -
it mean that read/write operations will go directly to the server,
but mmap will be done to the backing file.
