This backend raise some concerns:
- doesn't support symlinks
- fails +100 tests in the PJD POSIX file system test suite [1]
- requires the QEMU process to run with the CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH
capability, which isn't recommended for security reasons
This backend should not be used and wil be removed. The 'local'
backend is the recommended alternative.

This patch changes some error messages in the backend init code and
convert backends to propagate QEMU Error objects instead of calling
error_report().
One notable improvement is that the local backend now provides a more
detailed error report when it fails to open the shared directory.

The utimensat() and futimens() syscalls have been around for ages (ie,
glibc 2.6 and linux 2.6.22), and the decision was already taken to
switch to utimensat() anyway when fixing CVE-2016-9602 in 2.9.

In the init operation of handle backend dirver, it allocates a
handle_data struct and opens a mount file. We should free these
resources when the 9pfs device is unrealized. This is what this
patch does.

This patch changes the 9p code to use readdir() again instead of
readdir_r(), which is deprecated in glibc 2.24.
All the locking was put in place by a previous patch.

If we are to switch back to readdir(), we need a more complex type than
DIR * to be able to serialize concurrent accesses to the directory stream.
This patch introduces a placeholder type and fixes all users.
