fuse: add blksize field to fuse_attr

Browse Source 
There are cases when the filesystem will be passed the buffer from a single
read or write call, namely:

 1) in 'direct-io' mode (not O_DIRECT), read/write requests don't go
    through the page cache, but go directly to the userspace fs

 2) currently buffered writes are done with single page requests, but
    if Nick's ->perform_write() patch goes it, it will be possible to
    do larger write requests.  But only if the original write() was
    also bigger than a page.

In these cases the filesystem might want to give a hint to the app
about the optimal I/O size.

Allow the userspace filesystem to supply a blksize value to be returned by
stat() and friends.  If the field is zero, it defaults to the old
PAGE_CACHE_SIZE value.
