Previously the Mount RPC ignored the path component of the mount
request, so `server:/sub/dir` and `server:/` both landed at the root
of the served remote. The Mount handler now cleans the requested path
with path.Clean, looks it up in the VFS and serves a billy.Filesystem
rooted at that directory, refusing the mount if the path does not
exist or is not a plain directory.
A pathRewriter cache wraps the inner handle cache so that the same
file always produces the same NFS file handle regardless of which
mount minted it (and stable across server restarts for the disk and
symlink caches). This matches the traditional NFS expectation that a
subpath mount behaves like `cd` into a subtree.
nfsmount gains a --nfs-mount-path flag (default /) so clients can
select a subpath at mount time. This replaces a latent misuse of
--volname as the NFS mount path that was previously masked by the
server ignoring it.
Fixes#9442
Add a ctx parameter to vfs.New() so callers can pass in context
carrying ConfigInfo and FilterInfo. The context is stripped of
cancellation but config and filter values are preserved into a fresh
background context.
Metadata files have the file handle of their source file with
0x00000001 suffixed in big endian so we can look them up directly from
their file handles.
`--nfs-cache-type symlink` is similar to `--nfs-cache-type disk` in
that it uses an on disk cache, but the cache entries are held as
symlinks. Rclone will use the handle of the underlying file as the NFS
handle which improves performance.
This problem was caused by the defaults not being set for the options
after the conversion to the new config system in
28ba4b832d serve nfs: convert options to new style
This makes the nfs serve options globally available so nfsmount can
use them directly.
Fixes#8029
Summary:
In cases where cmount is not available in macOS, we alias nfsmount to mount command and transparently start the NFS server and mount it to the target dir.
The NFS server is started on localhost on a random port so it is reasonably secure.
Test Plan:
```
go run rclone.go mount --http-url https://beta.rclone.org :http: nfs-test
```
Added mount tests:
```
go test ./cmd/nfsmount
```
