The virtual filesystem should not be part of the system call implementation.
Rename feature fs to fuse, because it disables the support of the fuse file system. For legacy reasons, the feature fs will enable fuse.
- remove old style - using of slices instead of raw pointer
- usefull to determine the file size
- add functions to determine the file type and the file size

sys_getdents64 is compatible to Linux' system call getdents64. Consequently, it offers the reusing of an existing ABI.

- according to POSIX standard, the position between file descriptors will be shared after a dup operation

* add support of getdents64 to read directory entries - remove readdir support - add comment to describe file attributes - This PR depends on hermit-os/kernel#1013 * add latest version of libhermit * add test to open a file from the proc filesystem /etc is not longer mounted and should not be used for a test * rename some data structures to improve the backward compatability * minor changes to pass the format check * add test to read the directory entries * using hexadecimal numbers instead decimal numbers - improves the readability * update kernel module

Add basic support of a virtual filesystem (including an in-memory fs). If the kernel is running on top of uhyve, the host system will be mounted at mount point, which is defined by the kernel argument
-mount. If this argument is not used, the kernel uses/hostas default mount point. If the kernel detects FUSE, the kernel mount the filesystem at the mount point, which is specified by FUSE'stag. In case of Qemu, thetagis specified by the argument-device(e.g.-device vhost-user-fs-pci,queue-size=1024,chardev=char0,tag=root). In this example, FUSE will be mount at/root.In addition, the interface for file descriptors is revised and move the usage of raw pointers to the system call implementations.
