f316f1b2df fusefronted: disallow writes running concurrently with reads
As uncovered by xfstests generic/465, concurrent reads and writes
could lead to this,

  doRead 3015532: corrupt block #1039: stupidgcm: message authentication failed,

as the read could pick up a block that has not yet been completely written -
write() is not atomic!

Now writes take ContentLock exclusively, while reads take it shared,
meaning that multiple reads can run in parallel with each other, but
not with a write.

This also simplifies the file header locking.

fb3cc6ea40 openfiletable: rename WriteLock to ContentLock
...and IDLock to HeaderLock. This matches what the locks actually
protect.

514f515dd7 fusefronted, openfiletable: move the open file table to its own package
The open file table code needs some room to grow for the upcoming
FD multiplexing implementation.
