virtiofsd: Add an option to enable/disable security label

Provide an option "-o security_label/no_security_label" to enable/disable
security label functionality. By default these are turned off.

If enabled, server will indicate to client that it is capable of handling
one security label during file creation. Typically this is expected to
be a SELinux label. File server will set this label on the file. It will
try to set it atomically wherever possible. But its not possible in
all the cases.

SELinux support
---------------
One can enable support for SELinux by running virtiofsd with option
"-o security_label". But this will try to save guest's security context
in xattr security.selinux on host and it might fail if host's SELinux
policy does not permit virtiofsd to do this operation.
Hence, it is preferred to remap guest's "security.selinux" xattr to say
"trusted.virtiofs.security.selinux" on host.
"-o xattrmap=:map:security.selinux:trusted.virtiofs.:"
This will make sure that guest and host's SELinux xattrs on same file
remain separate and not interfere with each other. And will allow both
host and guest to implement their own separate SELinux policies.
Setting trusted xattr on host requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN. So one will need
add this capability to daemon.
"-o modcaps=+sys_admin"
Giving CAP_SYS_ADMIN increases the risk on system. Now virtiofsd is more
powerful and if gets compromised, it can do lot of damage to host system.
So keep this trade-off in my mind while making a decision.
