[Bug 1281493] [NEW] Add Glusterfs VFS support

[André Bauer]

Public bug reported:

Samba currently misses the VFS plugin for Glusterfs. You can find it on
glusterforge:

https://forge.gluster.org/samba-glusterfs

Our goal is to provide a seamless experience sharing GlusterFS volumes
over SMB to all clients. This means leveraging Samba’s VFS (Virtual
FileSystem) layer’s capabilities to bypass the filesystem layer and talk
to GlusterFS as a directly-accessed object store.

This project exists to provide an independent development space for a
VFS module known as vfs_glusterfs, and is focused on integration with
Samba version 3.6.9. Another version of vfs_glusterfs exists in the
master Samba branch which is focused on integration with the latest and
greatest version of Samba.
